T&A

I've quit both of the colleges I tried to go to so my advise would be kind of bias. I don't like to be told what to do and not to do and what classes to take and which classes I was suppose to take and no one told me. I just want to do art!

You said food and girls and my other friend said t&a! LOL You guys are too much!

The Trees!

my first 3 weeks of going to FSU, a student doing a social sciences study asked me a question about what most drove me to come to FSU. I had been dumped about 2 months prior by my highschool sweet heart, who I had intended to lead the way to the music school for her, while I got my business degree. Non of that had happened and I was pretty busted up over everything. So I answered, the Trees and the Architecture. They looked at me very strangely, and after I took statistics (and failed it) I realized that I had just gone to the edge of their statistical curve. I asked them what their study was yielding and they said about 60 percent said it was for the girls, (of guys they surveyed, and about 30% for the Football team. What a fucking joke. Best to go to a college with a specific Idea of what you want to learn. Life is the best teacher of things that will 'broaden your horizens', that and an inspiring professor or guru. I just took it as it came. I suggest looking closly at the catalog for the school you want. If it doesn't cover what you want to learn, go elsewhere, the research will pay off, otherwise your just wasting time before real life starts (and by that I mean a career in some kind of art).

dammit I wish I wouldve read this one earlier! I wasnt ignoring you I swear!

I've been really feeling beat up about all this and I've been doing as much research that I can. So far as scenery goes, I love the constant flow that NY has its always moving and living even if you're static. MN is a little tough just because I've never been there but I've been quite surprised at the museums and galleries they have there. MN cheaper (probably safer too, LOL) but I have family and friends in NY. So far as schools go, the animation shorts that I've seen in NY for some reason don't seem to fit that 'high standard' that NY is always saying that they have. The student work in MN actually looks good. I know that alot of it is computer but some of it has a really traditional feel and I can handle that at least, lol. Everything at the school in NY looked like it was done in Flash. I mean, it was'nt bad, but I was a little disappointed.

Ack!! All this school stuff is tearing me apart!!! I'm going mad! (not that I was normal before all this either, lol)

thank you so much for the reply though. It helps alot and I'll have to keep doing more research on where I should go. But you guys have to visit us at least once wherever we end up!!!

No problem Mrs. Genki. And don't freak out about Flash looking animation. It's actually the savior of 2d, because it saves time on ink and paint, plus you can still animate traditionally (with paper) and then it gets scanned for the Vectorizing. Plus, once things are vectorized, you can scale them and stuff that used to require a Multi-plane camera setup. As the technology advances, So will the capabilities of the Vector (Flash) type of 2D animation, to do stuff that Disney could have only dreamed of.
