Creator of Special Effects

[falcon_horus]

And so I just enrolled into a 2-year evening course -> creator of special effects...

First up are 3D animations in Lightwave, film terms, basic animation and matte painting in photoshop.

Hopefully the courses weren't fully booked, cause in that case I can file this away under "Dreams (never going to happen)" in my cabinet. Cause next year there will be an entrance exam which they don't yet have this year.

Go you!

Go me indeed!

My sister wanted to go to but she doesn't have the free time, so she'll be learning 2nd hand. I'll be teaching her. =D

The coordinator of the course just mailed me back (was actually hoping he'd mail me sooner) but the info he gave just made me more happy that I took the leap.

Today, at work, my colleagues were discussing the courses they were going to be taking in evening school and when it was my turn they had to tell me to take it easy cause apparently I was going in overdrive. =D My enthusiasm knew no limits.

omg so jealous!
i have been wanting to take a class like that forever..
but i live in a small centre and they just don't have any cool classes here, unless i want to tale business or agriculture.
I have a film degree but these kinds of courses weren't offered

congratulations! that's awesome!
you will have to show us your work!

I've been waiting forever as well, and when I saw it pop up in between the info of the new courses, I just had to try and get in. My sister wanted to go too, but she doesn't have time to go on thursday cause she doesn't want to give up her ballet-lessons.

I hope this will give me new opportunities in the work-related area. It'll be fun, of that I am sure. =D

*iz jealous*
But happy for you :^D
Wish there was something like that close to Antwerp so I wouldn't have to drive for an hour or longer to get the education that interests me. An hour drive doesn't seem long, but after a day of work and then after an evening of school, it is long... and dangerous when you feel like you're falling asleep.

Anyway. I'm kinda surprised they're still teaching Lightwave. The standard in the industry these days is 3DS Max or Maya. But Lightwave is a good stepping stone to those.

Have fun!! And I want to see stuff you make so I can be even more jealous :^p

I think I remember them saying that the 3D'ers will be working with 3DS Max.

I'm planning on re-doing my webpage and add what I learn along the way. :)

Sounds awesome!! :) Count me in amongst the jealous group. Hopefully we will get to see some of your work.

I would love to share, so don't think that's going to be much of a problem... except when I think it's not worthy of much sharing. :p

And hey, long time no see!
