It was perfect for me, I have a very busy schedule, which is the hardest
thing to work around when looking for school, so it suited me very well.
The loose class structure was great. I already had a basic knowledge of how
the 3ds max interface worked, and had been learning certain aspects of the
program on my own, so it was great to be able to walk in, and tell the
instructor what I wanted to go over. I liked how there wasn't a set course
outline, so I didn't have to waste time learning something I already knew.
The course itself was great, instructors really knew their material, and for
someone like myself, looking to improve certain skills, or someone just
looking how to do some basic stuff, it works very well. But 3ds max, being
a full blown creation suite, has alot of features, and while I did learn
most of what I set out to learn, I came away wishing I had time to go over
alot of other stuff. Obviously, since there are limited class hours, and
the program is so big, there is no way to go over everything, so I think it
would be great if there was a bigger class offered. Maybe time to think
about a full digital animation course? I know I would take it!
Like I mentioned above, a complete digital animation course would be great.
There hasn't been much in the way of digital animation education in Victoria
in the past few years (I have been looking) so if VSBT did offered
something, you would be the only people in town to do so. I'm sure all the
people moving to Vancouver for animation school would appriciate it.
