My favorite feedback to get on classes like this is "I learned more in 2 weeks than I did in 3 years of animation school, or in a college that cost me SO much more" and I get that feedback A LOT.
If you struggle against the computer while you're animating, this class will help you be creative without having to stress about Maya, or the technical workflows getting in your way.
And the best part? The videos are recorded for you to review in the future!
See you in class!
"This most definitely a class to consider taking, for it tackles all things technical and the things you either avoid doing or reluctantly get to. This is a class that'll give you the skills and confidence to go for it! It goes over quick and simple solutions that would have taken months for you to pick up as well as teaching you the right approach to avoid headaches down the line."
James Keo
"The class was a crash course that didn’t overwhelm me as other crash courses have."
Gilbert Garcia
"If Maya feels like a foreign language, this is the class for you. In animation classes, much time is often spent on the principles of animation, the technicalities of Maya being left as an afterthought. There is no better way than take a class with Sir Wade, in a fun and convivial atmosphere."
Louis Debrat
"This class was very unique and valuable opportunity where I was able to learn techniques and information that school probably won't be able to teach me. And not only I was able to get my questions answered but also get so many pro tips, head-ups from Sir Wade is so valuable and helpful. I definitely recommend for anyone who is interested in creating their own shot, or building an animation reel using props and rigs."
