Hi, so I'm going to uni in September to study computer animation, I haven't really had much past experience in this field, so I was just wondering if anyone else had?
Also has anyone had any experience in using Maya?
:D

Tried and failed xP I'm more of a 2D animator if anything.
Good luck though :D animation is a great choice, try using blender or some other free animation software to get used to the tools used :).
Nope had no experience but good luck! Hope you excel in it :)
Just a question; I have never done it myself, however, do you not need some kind of experience to go on to study something at University?
Thankyou and thankyou:)
and.. no, I don't, they teach you everything from scratch.. All I need is good drawing/artistic ability's and to be completely comfortable with using a computer ahah. Need 240 UCAS points as well.. but no actual experience necessary.
So you've studied A Levels to get the 240 ucas points?
Not really much experience within 3d animation but I've done crappy little animations, its not my cup of tea even when I do like art haha.
Yes. Well, I am currently taking A Level art and ICT, (and also got an extra 70 points from my grade 8 music performance)
And ok, well that's cool, what software did you use? Like Adobe Flash or something? What did you do your animations for? Fun? ;D
Awesome! What instrument do you play?Quote:
