oh really? i tabled last year... but i didnt really look around >.<. nah im in Freelance animation school, media design is too broad apparently (my tutors and a lot of ppl say the graduates not so good in animation principles...) but really in the end its all self taught...

i heard you talking about FDZ school, man that school is the real deal because they actually teach you hard solid formulas.

i sorta walked around but was too shy to really say hi to anyone. ._.||| the chances are i probably have seen you last year. LOL

Oh ya, i searched up Freelance animation school before, you guys do a lot of 2D stuff right? that's what i feel in Massey, so many things self taught. haha

yeah, wish we have school like FDZ here, but i bet it's real hard to get into in the first place. >.<

do you do 3d animation? erk i'd not like 3d though, all the software process >: but our school has 3d class too. animation is same regardless of medium though


and yea, i bet it would be, but then, they just want to know if you have a designer mindset (problem solving). correct way of thinking and eagerness to learn..

you want to be a manga artist aye? I want to be a storyboarder.. which is kinda the same way of working..

as far as i can tell Massey animation is mainly 3D. (though there are so 2D animation papers, but they are just electives.) I kinda like 3D animation for its softwareness. XD

either way it's hard to get in. T.T

Manga artist was really my teenage dream. >.< now i'm really just trying to get into any area of animation, be it concept artist or animator...

do you enjoy using 3d software?? i hear rigging is a bitch..

more like its too far away..

year i think its better to do your manga as a hobby later when you are accomplished artist and you can actually have fun while you do it :3...

how long have you studied?
aiki-ame's avatar
ha...we haven't even learn rigging yet, this year we've only been modelling environment. But i enjoyed it. ^w^

>.< i guess if we are ambitious enough we could go study in singapore. (i probably just don't have the guts to take the step. sigh~)

yeah...manga will be my hobby. TvT

I'm in my second year.
