I'll be learning Maya in at least one of my intro classes. Hopefully Blender, 3DS Max, and Zbrush as well. And I want to learn some music programs as well. Ableton or Reason or something. ;-; God I want to do everything.

I'm going to blow what remains of my money on an Xbox and video games. I've go great priorities.

Nah, FM! Get a PS3

That's great you want to learn all that stuff. I did the same when I went to AI....I got my hands into everything. Just be careful how all of it affects your portfolio and your goals. If you want to continue to pursue concept art, then take more life drawing, painting, and sculpting classes. Software constantly changes, and you have to always keep up with it. Intro classes are a good ice breaker. Unless you want to become a 3D artist, you can learn the rest on your own, honestly. Student copy of Maya is free: [link] Take more advanced courses to help you become a better concept artist, nah'mean?

In my opinion, build a Herculean foundation of traditional art while you are in SCAD. Your port and all the studios out there will love you for it. Friendly advice

Hell no. PS3 doesn't have any games I like that I can't get on Xbox, and I kind of hate PlayStation controllers.

I'm no longer pursuing concept art as much. I'm interested in VFX at the moment, though i rather lack the necessary skill set. But that's what I'm going to an art school for, isn't it? I have Maya on my school computers, and I can't figure it out on my own. Trust me, I've tried. I'll need an instructor of some sort.

I will continue building my traditional skills where most necessary, but I really do want to focus on digital art and programing. The three of those together can help make me a very marketable individual.

VFX is fun to learn and a huge market! I dabbled through a lot of trades when I was in art school myself, from 3D to web design programming. I did it to see where my talents were more prevalent. Looking forward to seeing some 3D art from you on here soon.

Gotta get through some core classes, first. Though I suppose I can fill one slot with a basic 3D class, since I'm exempt from English (scored a 5 on my AP exam, woohoo!)

Haha, sports. Funny.

Probably not, unless there's a blacksmithing club. I don't have the time or patience for most club stuff, and if I do have the time, I'd rather spend it sleeping or playing video games.

And the only sports I would do are archery and broadsword.

My friends and I started our own club in college where we watched classic cartoons, drew cartoons, and played Mario Kart 64.

I'm taking classes, though, quite honestly, I've learned more here in a month than I ever did at AI. However, I'm extreeeeemely slow at this.
