Choosing an Animation School
Whether you are looking at an animation university, trying to find animation tutorials to learn CG animation, or considering various art schools or animation colleges, you're number one question probably is 'how do I know if this is the best animation school for me?' Things to consider include price, quality of curriculum, quality of teachers, and the quality of the student work.
Most important for animators is a strong demo reel they can use to show prospective employers their animation skills. If the overall student work you see coming out of particular school is high, odds are good that your demo reel will look good too! Lastly, look at the schools' placement rates. This means how many of their students get placed into a job after graduation. The higher the placement rate, the better the school will be for your future career plans.
