No problem, you have a wonderful fluent style! If you don't mind me asking, did you take any drawing course before you started your animation course, and if so, where did you attend? It seems like you had a pretty strong grasp of it all when you started your animation course already.

I'm really glad to hear that!
No, I was self-taught before I went into animation.
Though I really wish I did take a course, because since I always just drew what I liked, I never really got into anatomy and my animations have sometimes suffered because of that. Are you studying animation?

Wow, great job on being an autodidact then! Like I said, your drawing looked really solid even before (I think) you started the course.

No, I'm studying game design, though I've always loved movies and animation more than games. I mostly went there because it seemed to be the only course that would teach me some solid drawing foundation skills here in the Netherlands I'm toying with the idea of attending some animation/drawing course, that's why I was so interested. Are you attending this school by any chance? [link] I've seen a few of their shorts before, really impressive.

Thank you

Yeah, I'm at my 3rd year at the animation workshop at the moment actually. Now it's our turn to make the films!
But all I can say, that it's a fantastic school. We're lucky enough to get some pretty good teachers over here I would definitely recommend it if you're thinking about doing animation studies! Are you at HKU or something?

RenginTumer In reply to enits [2012-02-23 16:12:17 +0000 UTC]

Yea, from what I've read on the website it looks like a great school. I'm eager to see what you guys come up with this year!

I did Saturday schooling at the HKU during high school for a year, but it was one of those schools that was really too artsy-fartsy for me. I'm studying IGAD at NHTV in the south of the country atm (they started in 2006, the first two batches of students just graduated). Though drawing really isn't a focal point of the course it's all about observation skills and functionality, so that's what sold it for me Of course, now I know a lot of game development lingo while I'd rather get into film.

Glad to hear that If you want to follow them, we all have blogs. This is the one I'm working on atm: [link] (there are a few links to some of the other films on the bottom of the side column, the other blogs link to more of them)

I can imagine it is quite artsy-fartsy hehe. Sounds like a good school down there then But you've done a bachelor there or? Since you've been looking at TAW.

RenginTumer In reply to enits [2012-02-26 14:33:51 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I'll definitely start following your progress Most of the shorts seem to be 3D though, are most people at TAW focusing on 3D animation? I personally figured from your style that you'd be a 2D animator (though I really liked that news anchor clip you posted on vimeo!)I'm more interested in 2D animation to be honest, if there's a huge focus on 3D at TAW too I'm not so sure if it's the best school for me, since I've mostly been doing 3D at IGAD too.

I'm busy with graduation right now (yes, it's a bachelor). Basically our last few years are switched, we do an internship after 2,5 years of classes and then spend our final year graduating either with our own projects or with a company, if that suits the company's and our needs. This is an overview of the past 13 weeks: [link] . I'll be starting a sort of follow-up project making something like an artbook for a hypothetical movie, taking two scenes from a book as a base

enits In reply to RenginTumer [2012-02-27 09:53:00 +0000 UTC]

Well I think the reason for there being more 3D films is that on the school we also have a CG study. And every year we collaborate with them on the bachelors. Though there's usually a couple of 2D films every year. One of them this year seems really promising too! A lot of people in my class are going the 2D way, so you shouldn't worry about that. There's not really a big focus on either I guess. First year you do 2D animation, the second year you do 3D animation and then third year you get to choose as long as one of the 2D pitches gets picked. Or just make sure you pitch the most kickass 2D film there is so they don't have any other choice than to pick it (for the bachelors everyone who wants can pitch their idea as a director and then the students will vote on which ones should be made). But I mean, if you want a pure 2D animation study, it's probably not the way to go. Though to be honest, when I started I though all I ever wanted to do was 2D animation, but then I tried 3D and really liked it a lot too. And since it's often hard to get jobs in the beginning (unless you're really good), it's good to be able to do it on the side as well since most commercials are made in 3D.

Nice drawings there! That sounds like a really fun project to try make an artbook like that. Good luck with that!

RenginTumer In reply to enits [2012-03-02 15:13:03 +0000 UTC]

Ah ok, that explains a lot

I have actually done some 3D animation already, though I wouldn't say it was really advanced. Just a walk cycle for a robot and a set driven key for some cannon coming out of a barrel, and some other little things. Actually the last subject that I have left to do to get the ECTS I need is 3D animation (we're free to drop classes along the way as long as we retake a certain amount before we start our internship/graduation), so I guess I'll have a good go at that and see if I like it enough to spend a full year on

Thank you for your time and informative answers!

Congratz! Yes, I remember your avatar xD Are you coming to the introduction week?

Did they give you the option of taking some online course and completing it instead? I didn't take the extra classes nor the math test myself because I completed some test online instead. I heard the math test was easy though, at least it was 2 years ago, because they probably also have to take MBO and havo students into account. Since you did math B at VWO I think you should be fine if you freshen up on some basic math, but yea, I'd ask someone who did the math test instead =\ Did you have contact with ~galgje ? She started last year, maybe she can tell you about the math test. Good luck and I'll see you around!

And yes I asked her about it too, she did the online course and got the certificate. I think I'll be signing up for ALEKS and completing that instead. Since they mentioned that with a 100% result printscreenshot you wouldn't have to take the test. Which sounds quite appealing to me.

Yea, that's the same thing I did, though at the time I even got through with something like 92%. Not that I ever used it for the course again, but whatever.

Anyway, see you at Camp Lost. I'll be a team lead, just look for the girl with the big brown curly hair.

Kyendo In reply to RenginTumer [2009-05-02 12:25:01 +0000 UTC]

xD Well, it was the class we learned about skelegons, so we had to make a simple character and its skeleton. It was made in polygons.

Fast forward to a couple of lessons later - we started learning about texturing, light, camera, etc. and we were supposed to experiment with an object we'd made previously, so most of us used our little character. And this is what I came up with.

I must admit it was fun. :]
