The teachers and students of the summer program were beyond extraordinary and I'm really proud to be involved in the animation industry, and somehow I know I'll see them again at a studio, somewhere, someday.
My sketches will have to be posted later, but until then here are only but a few selected photos from my trip (I say a few because I literally took 500+ pictures over the course of two weeks, most of them are from architecture and museum trips).
Beyond that, I've got a new goal now; I want to get accepted into Gobelins' three year animation program. *bites lip*
They say it's far easier to get accepted into Harvard than it is to get into Gobelins. *nervous laugh* But from what the professors and students and peers have said, I might have a good chance if I work hard at it, so... I'll work hard at it. There's no other way to do it.
By the way, Nneka!! I GOT YOUR PACKAGE. I LOVE YOUR VAAN AND THE PRINTS, AHHH~<3<3
Ahhhh ahhh this is all so exciting! It's so good to hear that the trip was well worth it, I'm eternally jealous. As for your goal, I'll place my bets on you achieving it, for sure!
ReplyDeleteOwluuu <3 Baww, thanks man!!
ReplyDeleteI really can't wait for September to roll by! I want to meet you (and your sketchbook) so badly. XD
I'm so happy to hear that it was such an extraordinary experience! You are such a lucky lady to get accepted, I have no doubts if you were to apply for the three year in the future you will get in! Your skills are really up there. Not sure how the other students compared there but you are really a gem here :D You are already set, no worries1 You're a miracle machine 8D
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm happy you like the package! I can't believe it shoved so many inside xD. I'M SO SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG! you can semi blame the strike?LOL JK. I hope you didnt think I forgot :P
I have to say, I have heard so much about your drive and passion for animating, I'm really moved. I strive to have the kind of passion you have, Nicole!
ReplyDeleteMy name is Alison, I'm going to be entering the animation program at Sheridan next year, and I sincerely hope that you wouldn't mind getting to know each other! You're... fantastic. I can't put any other words to it. I want desperately to learn so much from you, really.
Nneka; Pffawww ;__; Thank you so much, man <3<3 The student work there were very..... very.. strong.. it can be really nerve-wrecking to even think about applying there...
ReplyDeleteLOL YEAH I was totally shocked at how many of your prints were in there!! I was like "W...would I have to draw her another picture for this? ;u;" And man, I love your bookmarks and N keycharm too. I really really like bookmarks because I tend to read a lot, and yours are so freaking strong and non-flimsy and colorful. <3 Thanks again, man...! I WANT TO ART TRADE WITH YOU AGAIN, AHAHA!!
Alison; I seriously think that you already have the passion and drive, man. LOL
I checked out your blog and I'm pretty sure that you'll be amongst the best students in the upcoming year. :0 I'd /love/ to meet you in person!! But trust me, there's not much you can learn from me apart that working hard is the solution to everything . XD
OMG SO INSPIRING <3
