Shout out to anyone looking to study in New Zealand.
I'm one of the international students taking the 3D animation course at Lifeway College, here in New Zealand. It wasn't cheap (for international students) but after looking into other schools in Canada and New Zealand, I decided to come here to study.
There are at least 3 major 3D animation schools in N.Z.
-Lifeway College
-Raffles College
-Media design school
Some of my classmates have actually gone to these other major 3D animation courses in N.Z. only to come here afterwards. It would seem that Lifeway is interested in keeping current with 3D/film industry trends.
Now let me iterate- I'm not getting paid or told to write this by anyone. I'm only writing about Lifeway because they seem to sincerely care about their program being the best in NZ. They're spending alot of money on making the program current- giving me cutting edge software and hardware to work on, hiring industry professionals (not just academic teachers) and building new labs.
Some of our instructors are only here because they're taking a break from the industry to study and write master's papers. (no kidding!)
I'm glad I chose to spend 25 grand and come study here at Lifeway College. So you know my opinion.
If you're curious about Lifeway- feel free to PM me some questions.
