As for now Im gathering a pile of money to fullfill my dream next year. I'm planning to go wherever in the world to learn more about modelling/animation/lightning/texturing of course not all of them at the same time :p

My question goes to all of you out there who had any serious education in 3d, where did you study? England looks good so far so if you guys could help me out with names of different places it would be appreciated!

Thx in advance!

You could also check out SCAD. (Savannah College of art and design) and New York University. Both have great programs for 3d. I am currently looking into NYU for the masters program and the department is definitely solid.

hey Aaron Moore, you said digipen was low key?..if you can, please explain what you mean by that...after you saying that its been on my shoulder a bit, and i need an explanation :)

i don't wanna go to the wrong school to learn something i wasn't looking to do for 3d animation

i don't think i'd take too much consideration into the opinion of a stranger's friend. you wouldn't really have a basis as to how well the school is.
