Hello Ladies & Gent Is there any one here currently attending one off those Animation school that teach everything from modeling through animation or are you a self learn? If your in a school which one and what do you think of it? Also if you learning from an animation school online tell me what does it like to learn…
EQ's first reply is right on the money. I completed the first year of a game development course here in Melbourne, and it was a waste of money as far as I'm concerned, so I never went back to complete the second year. I just worked on my art in my own time and was lucky to land a job after a year and a half. I am…
I'm no animator, but I'm friends with plenty. That being said, animation, for the most part, cannot be lumped into Polycount's normal "go to a traditional art school and learn the technical stuff on the side" take on schooling. I've known big name animators who still say they suck, simply because they haven't been doing…
Went to Vancouver Film School. Attended their 3d animation vfx program, and it was a great experience for modelling. Animation dept is alright, but seem like places like animation mentor could be better for that price. It was a great environment, even better when you make friends with classmate who are even more motivated…
http://www.animationmentor.com Best Animation School for your buck. Certainly not a place that's just cashing in on game development schooling. Highly skilled, very well done. Check it out, if you're looking to go down the schooling path. My girl is an Animation Mentor graduate. She found out about it halfway through her…
While I taught myself how to do computer art (with the help of just playing with software, polycount and a couple other sources) I still went to a school offering computer animation, and dropped out after the first term when I realized that I had been using some of the software longer than some of my teachers, but that's…
so first off all I would need to start out with my art correct, and plus I want to take an art school just to learn how to draw I don't want to take those traditional school where you have to learn math, science, and so on where I don't think is need it in modeling and animation. Do you think Silo is a good software to…
In the UK theres perhaps 3 Universities that'l get you into an animation job. And I use the term "get you in" very lightly. In no order of any kind:- Bourmeworth (england) Teeside (scotland) GlenMoran (wales) God my spelling sucks. Those seem to be the only unversities that arent out particurly too raise funds. And to…
I have to say that I think that for learning the fundamentals of animation, it IS a good idea to go to a good school. I agree with others, too, that you should go into an animation program that teaches it from the basics with pencil and paper. That's what I did; I took a 3 year animation course where the first two years…
