Hasta La Motion!

Hey there, I’m new here.
I’m studying graphic design and multimedia, interested in animation and visual effects.
I haven’t found a reliable source about a good school for VFX abroad (since in Colombia there’s isn’t, sadly).

Can anyone recommend me a good one? to be true I’d love to study in Europe, or at least not US or Canada, but all the schools I look up are in those countries, anyway…

Ah! and maybe one which price wouldn’t have to make me sell my organs to afford, lol.

Thank you! 🙂

Hi friends,
I am having a problem with a model that i am using for my demo reel. Maybe this issue is not supposed to be discussed here in this forum but i could think of no other place to find help. My modeller keeps modelling a female character which should actually be cartoony but when he passes it to my rigger/animator he keeps on taking out a lot of mistakes saying that the character has no characteristics, the edge flow has problem, the lips have bcum realistic etc. Now my issue is that my modeler has always modeled realistic characters & his characters have never been rigged or animated so he is having a problem understanding whats wrong with the model & I am a VFX artist but i know little about the technical details abt modelling. Since my animator keeps taking out mistakes we have to remodel the character always which consumes a lot of time. I am adding sum images of the model please give me comments on how to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.:confused:

Hello there, This is my first time i’m entering in 3D field. My experienced was Graphic designer. but i got bored from that.

So about 3D field, i am big fan of visual effects,animation and modeling. i know that this is totally different areas but, i have no idea what to focus on.

I really want to know how to do movie-like visual effects, like harry potter, clash of the titans etc, but i am also interest in modeling , especially characters and non-organic stuff.

What does movie industry are looking for mostly?

Hi,
I’m planning to doing an escape studios vfx intensive course but I’m not sure which one would be better, the vfx professional or vfx production? Are there any people who have done either courses? I would love to hear what your experiences where and what you did after you finished your course? And the big question, whether or not you think it’s was worth all that money?
