Hey Im interested in becoming one of the talented Pixar Animation Studios employees. Maybe someone can help me get started.
Im a senior in high school and I want to major in animation, im taking an animation course at a local community college and i like it a lot. does anyone recommend any good animation colleges? i know of Savannah college of art and design, DAVE school, ITT Tech Institute, University of the Arts, Ringling College of Art and Design, The Art Institutes, Maryland Institute College of Art and and International Academy of Design and Technology. Any feedback at all would be very helpful! Thank You!!

Mon, November 8, 2004 - 5:26 AMIt doesnt matter what school you go to, as long as you have talent and can show it.
From what i know, i have had some friends and have been a "guest artist" at the AASF and it was a really nice school.
My #1 advice as an animator, former student, and animation instructor, is NEVER count on a school or teacher to teach you anything, college is weed and feed, mostly weed. You ARE only going to get out of school what you take from it!, so take what you can, study and practice!
