Maya Springboard Workshop is now officially over

Hey All,

We had our final Maya Springboard Workshop on the 12th. It was a great learning experience and I learned so much about how to work with Maya. In fact, I am now very confident that I will be able to efficiently work with Maya basics and not have to struggle too much when the actual AM classes begin at the end of this month.

We had so much fun with Aja. Most interesting were the little insights that she gave us time to time about how the industry works. She also gave us a sneak peek at her experiences in the industry and how she overcame obstacles and found the will to carry on. I believe she got a little emotional like everyone of us in the last class. She gave us a lot of tips on how to balance our time between AM, our family and work. Every word of advice that she gave us was very valuable.

Now, we can't wait to start with the actual classes when we get to animate stuff and learn more about animation. So far we did not get an e-critiques from Aja on the quality of our animation except occasionally, since these classes were aimed at learning Maya. But now comes the real deal, where all we will do is learn animation. I still don't know who my mentor will be but should get to know a few days before the classes commence. Oh, I am so excited :)
