Hasta La Motion!

just wondering if anyone has any thoughts about the quality of the courses for 3d animation & VFX in Australia?

Originally going to study overseas, but that is proving to be financially impossible so I am staying home to learn.

I have applied for QANTM college, but of course the QANTM site wont be telling me the negatives of the course. I was hoping to get some feedback from some people who have actually completed a course there and what they thought of it?

Also if anyone has any other suggestions for some other courses PLEASE speak up.

I have done a search for QANTM here and no one seems to have posted anything…

Hope you can help. Thanks

I have asked myself this question for some time now. Every time i see an ending title sequence, and i don’t mean the credit blocks, but the creative stuff before, i think man this is just nicely done pure after effects work.

Now my question(finally :D); "is it now after effects? Or is it an application that I never heard before from…?"

I hear sometimes that if you are a good artist, anything can be done, but isn’t their a limit on how much you can do?

For instance, I got this really crappy shot of an actor in front of green screen. Their is poor lighting, grain, motion blur, shadows and folds on the green screen. Their is also a lot of spill on the actor, so when I use primatte or keylight, it keys a lot of the pants with it and when I adjust the parameters, I can never seem to pull a good key.

When something like that happens, what do you do? What happens in the real world when something like this happens? Do you ask for better footage or…?
