Why you need an education
There have been countless "should I go to art school threads." The answer is no. Don't waste your time or money on any art or game school. With that out of the way, you may want to get an education. Here are some reasons: If you're an artist, all the coders and business people at your job are probably vastly more educated… -

Can I ask you a question? Are you American? -

Math and economics here i come! On the serious note, imho, you can't succeed at something you don't really like. -
Re: Why you need an education
Where did you study in NA? I have seen some European students work which isn't any better or worse than over here. It sounds like you reference Altier programs (which btw are offered in some places in NA), or illustration programs. Both which promote a structured traditional way to learn (albeit Altier more classical… -

Just want to say about the whole respect towards artists thing. If someone(like a coder or even a fellow artist) doesn't respect or like you then fuck 'em. As long as you can work with someone in a professional manner thats fine. Respect is earned and is not automatically given to you if you have a Masters or a Doctorate.… -
Re: Why you need an education
Well i must respond to this surprising post. I can tell by the way you think that you didn't take any courses outside your primary subject. First, it's not true that accountant, administrator or programmer are smarter then 3d artist or any other artist working in the video game industry... I can tell you that most people… -
Re: Why you need an education
So if you are an artist that is going to a university in fine arts, or are even just learning on your own. What do you think about taking math, business and writing classes at a community college? Do you think this setting is too laid back and low level, or would it be a good means to take these types of classes without… -
Re: Why you need an education
I think I'll chime in on this since I'm kind of half and half. What Andreas said about being an American, I think he is referring to American art education. If you take St Petersburg academy or Shanghai academy or many European art schools in Italy and France the level of art education is leaps and bounds higher than North… -
Re: Why you need an education
After reading the op the only thing I can take away is that you had better learn to communicate better REGARDLESS of profession. A lot of these other disciplines that you say are necessary arent really that relevant unless you want to pursue going into business for yourself. This is a route that many business minded… -
Re: Why you need an education
Sorry man, I tend to disagree with that quite strongly. Respect should be earned with hard work on your craft and not throwing money and time at what everyone else does. If your colleagues don't take you seriously then either you're not good enough of a professional or a person. Or they can just be mean. But it has nothing…
