VFX-A took me from a someone fumbling in the dark with fx to been moved from rigging to vfx full time at work and I couldn't be more grateful for that!!
Johnathan Chellew
Portfolio Bootcamp (Fall 2023)
Overall this was a fantastic experience! I got very comfortable sharing my work and getting feedback which was something I was a bit nervous to do beforehand. It was also great that the assignments were open-ended so people with different skill levels or busier schedules could still get good results.
