本身有做開Animation..
如果想去Savannah讀Animation要咩條件?
難唔難入?

最緊要係.... 錢!

the requirment of entering to SCAD is not difficult , as long as you meet the requirment . However it depends on the achievement you wish to gain ; I would suggest that if you wish to learn some professional animating skills from the professor then it is not a must to take animation course in SCAD

Then where you pefer to go?

Try escape studio . You will be learnt the skill you wish to seek in the industry . But if money is the problem then the only way you can do is develop your animating skills and keep posting in the forum regularly .

It need not consider the money..
I am only a secondary student and I hope to find a wonderful college or university for studying a degree.
Do you have any idea..

There is no such ' wonderful ' college or university in life . Mostly animation course in an university programme only consider as academy subject therefore student will have to asign some of an asignment that may not related animation for example ; such as essay writing .

To be honest degree is not a must in nowadays cause eveyone are degree holders . Furthermore animation industry does not required a degree but only your skills and working experience is an animation studio seeks . It is your decisions to desired in life and no harm for try .

Anyway for your references you can try vancouver film school , hertfordshire university or the college near to Kwoloon Tong .

Hope that helps

Agree with Ayakiryu. I think it is nice to have a degree but strong portfolio and strong skill are the most important for animators.

You can also try Sheridon College in Toronto, they offer 3 years degree course on traditional animation and computer animation. great course by the way. or AnimationMentor, you can study at home for that, but that's only a diploma.

I would suggest Sheridon College or Gobelins animation school in France if money isn't a problem for you and you have good drawing skills. it's also a good idea to take a look at the graduate student portfolio of each school to choose which one is best for you.

我想問多少少.... 樓主話"做開Animation"

究竟係 2D, 3D 定係 stop motion?

3D animation 又可以睇成 character animation or VFX

Animation 本身隻字又包含好多野, 背後有 concept design, story, cinematography, audio, composting & editing

你揀學校之餘, 都要了解多D 其他範疇既野

Got a questions

If I want to improve my zbrush and 3d modeling skills , Shall I take cousre in vancouver film school ?

一年十幾萬你都讀到:O
睇黎你都好有錢呀:P

I just asking cause I have reviewed their showreel through in youtube . But the only problem is I 'm not sure how they teach

I do not want to appear to be rude. However, I must disagree with your false perceptions Ayakiryu. There are "wonderful" colleges and universities in life. There are thousands of university out there, I'm assertive that you have not been to all of them, so why raise such a bias statement?

There is an enormous amount of Universities out there that provide Animation majors and Art specific institutions. They are NOT just a course provided in an university. Just to say a few; Academy of Art University, Cal Arts, Art Institute, Ringling college....etc are all institutions that provides a degree with a major in animation. I can back this up, as myself is an Academy of Art University and without any bitter assumptions, I can share to this forum that my experience in this University was in fact nothing less than phenomenon.

If anyone must want to hear this, I highly recommend a degree course. Although, it's true that skills is more important over your degree. However, one neglects to over see that if one day you decide to explore the possibility of an animation career outside of Hong Kong, especially in US or Canada. They need a degree holder with relevant experience to qualify as a potential candidate for a work visa.

We all know that, in this animation industry, Pixar, Dreamwork, ILM, Disney and Weta Digital are one of the top dogs and none of these companies are in Hong Kong. If your dream is to work there, with no degree you will need at least 5 years of experience without a degree. The visa type will be different versus a candidate with a degree. There will be more limitations. Additionally, Hong Kong vfx and animation industry is declining and your commercial experience or minor TV series experience will not be valid to these top dogs.

I know, everyone has a degree and there is nothing special about it. However, if you look at this in a wider spectrum. Without a degree, you are less competitive on paper against those who do have a degree.

For zbrush or 3d modeling skill, I think AnatomyTools.com will help you alot. I think learning from the inside out is better. I know many ILM people are taking this course..

If you need to improve your modeling skills, the best way to study anatomy. Understand where the muscles are located and how they react in different motion. While learning anatomy, do some sculpting, that always help. Lastly, draw more.
