Hi there,

I just noticed that the Academy of Art is now offereing Online course for its BA in Animation and also Online Award of Completion in Maya, modeling and what not.

Has anyone signed up for this and seen the quality of training yet? Any commnets would be great. Do you get any personal attention and what not?

Thanks

Under the admin tab, click on Tuitions:

I too am thinking of taking their online degree in Visual Effects in the Master's Program since I'm location in Florida and can't afford to move to Cali just yet.

There are pros and cons to taking Online versus Inclass. The two threads the 'WiSe' have included does cover some of them. I think there's another thread somewhere on the forum that goes in a little more indepth; I'll see if I can find it.
