I've been hearing this a lot, and it makes me concerned. I'm not actually interested in game design, but I'm in a "game design"-esque major because I couldn't find anything better in-state for what I actually want to do, which is animation (2D or 3D, but 2D preferred), special effects, production design, etc. in my state of Texas. I visited the Art Institute of Houston once, and was not impressed. Thus, I go to the University of Texas at Dallas and study Arts and Technology. Nearly any time that isn't used for eating/sleeping/studying is put forward to improving my skills and portfolio. However, I'm increasingly worried that I'm in the wrong spot, or that I'm not getting programs that compliment and help me develop skill. How much is where you attended school valued versus your portfolio? Say, an ace portfolio from Small Name Art College versus a slightly less than ace portfolio from Ringling or SCAD? Does anyone know of a reputable art school close to/around the Texas area or in the South? Something that's respected within the industry, I mean. Both Ringling and SCAD I've heard good things about, but being so far away sort of makes me uncomfortable, honestly. Not Zilon fucked around with this message at 02:23 on Aug 29, 2007 |
