Should I attend a "3d animation" school if I want Entertainment Design/Art/Concept?
Hey guys! Before anything, as the "don't go to art school" idea is pretty much widespread, I don't wanna go to a school for the education only, but rather to get visa/work permit/networking conditions easily. I want to use the opportunity to go to a school in US/CA so I can later immigrate there. I hope you can shed some… -

Why did you mention Canada exclusively (and not the US)? And yes, by trying to find the best school I end up back with my first question :( Take Sheridan for example. One of the best in Canada but all 3 programs (Animation, Game Design and Illustration) have at least half of their curriculum totally disposable to me. They… -

Haha no way man! You'd regret that after 2 weeks, max! It's really not how they pictured in the world cup, and I live in a city praised for being one of the most "european" ones in Brazil. I've had so much bitter down here that when I first went to Toronto/London/SF/NY, I realized exactly how sugar tasted like! Dude… -

http://www.nait.ca/78124.htm Tuition info including for internationals in Canadian dollars: http://www.nait.ca/78131.htm It's a decent program for the price, which you can supplement with reputable online courses like those offered by futurepoly, cgma or gnomon. You want costlier brand name schools like VFS and Sheridan,… -

If I had to do it all over again I would completely shun the University system and go to the Florence Academy of Art to build the strongest foundation for myself I could. If I couldn't make it all the way to Italy I would go to an Atelier closer to home. At the very least I would go through the Bargue manual on my own.… -

Ah yea sorry about all of that. I should have put a bit more time into my posts. I just mentioned Canada as you said you were looking for schools up there. If schools in the U.S are on the table as well. You shoud look at Art Center College of Design. Oh my god, the amount of talent in that school... *drool* Ben Mauro,… -

online game revenues hit $1.4 billion in 2013, the fifth biggest games market in the world. I'm not trying to dissuade you from traveling abroad, I'm just jealous, you're in a pretty good position to come back. If I spoke the language I'd take a senior role in Brazil. -

Everybody here seems to say that for every single "new" economy sector emerging. It's actually hilarious. Who knows, maybe it is, but certainly gonna take some time so things catch up. It's all baby level, at least art related. Almost no big productions and artwork from the few indie studios lacks appeal. Many top-notch… -

What's the deal with europeans? Why is it easier for them to immigrate? And it's not really "100k" for connections only, well maybe it is when you think about the US only. Even though I think if I went to Gnomon I could really get a shot! But let's narrow it down to Canada from now on. Canada is different. I can actually… -
Re: Should I attend a "3d animation" school if I want Entertainment Design/Art/Concept?
I agree with that. I'm actually gonna edit the first post to add that my 2nd goal with college/UN/school is actually to facilitate my way into living abroad. The easiest way to do that is by attending a school, rather than staying a home studying and waiting half a decade so my work is good enough to foreigner studio…
