Re: Internship ideas?
Dekard sometimes you can put off the internship slightly into the year, I guess it depends on the school though. At the one I attending some students enrolled into the course, but didn't find the place to intern until a few months into the semester. You might have to get permission to do this, I imagine it's different… -
Re: My web site is finally live *DELETED*
Im not really gonna go into critiquing your site or your work right now, however, I would like to say that at school, the instructors and other students are almost entirely made up of ass kissers. Professors consistently tell kids good job and tell them how cool it is after they make the most pathetic crap that took all of… -
New laptop recommendations
I am starting online schooling in a few weeks and may need to purchase a new (PC) laptop. I currently have a Macbook Pro but I can't find the programs that I will be using on the student discount webpage for macs. (Autdesk software mainly) I know autodesk has software compatible with Mac but it would be much easier to… -
Re: [Portfolio] Justin Frazee, 3D modeler, Environment Artist
I knew mine was going to be crap even before I applied. But there weren't many other options and besides, I met some great friends and still had fun. Anyway you should tell your teachers to look at these three portfolio's as examples of what their students should really have on their folio's. http://www.thiagoklafke.com/… -
Re: TornadoTwins Game Challenge
Not sure how I feel with a for-profit school that though better than some still churns out unprepared students being the main sponsor. That and the main prizes... honestly are underwhelming. Most people will already have licenses for some of the software needed to create the game in the first place. The free subscription… -
Re: Thread of Awesomeness, Hilariousness, Off-topic, Youtube
Some great stuff on that Feng Zhu website. If I wasn't up to my eyeballs in homework, I'd have a crack at modelling one of them. Yeah, I'm doing the decidedly mature age student thing this year and apart from the fact that I'm back to being a penniless student, it's been a great decision. And that's coming from someone who… -
Re: New Years Resolutions - 2015
1) spend more time on my game rather than seeing my friends and drinking 2) spend more time doing weights instead of killing time (see above) 3) sort my professional life out 4) sort my personal life out, big time 5) go out of my way to explain to students / up-and-comers that success isn't ever what you think it is. In oh… -
Re: Online talk: Personal Branding Tips for Game Artists
Definitely one of the topics that gets rehashed a lot, there's a ton of good advice out there already about this topic. Your portfolio repels jobs and 100 things every game student should now (it's not just about branding, but there's a ton of good related general advice). A lot of things in this video are a bit too… -
Re: Why We Sleep - read this if you are sleeping less than eight hours a night
Feng Zhu student say they only sleep 5 hours a night. I've seen some Japanese artist work schedule where the artist just sleeps 4 hours a night, with 5 hours on Sunday. If you only slept 5 hours a day, and worked 16 hours a day, then you would be so much further than someone who slept 9 hours a day and worked 10 hours.… -
Re: What Are You Working On? 2010 Edition!
Not really, but I figured I may as well take advantage of the Autodesk student licensing and get myself some free software. Modo is still my primary modeling tool, but there are a lot of features I wish it had that have been in Max and Maya for years now. Since I can use Max and Maya for free as long as I'm a student, I…
