my dream one day
@Keep Rocking! there's getting a job and working hard to pay off the tuition ;)
NOSRA same
Just work! And see how many greats never went to school! Basquiat . Francis Bacon. Warhol.
Keep Rocking! Yaaa I’m literally not rich enough for that shit lolll ruclips.net/video/6Iierx2l3MI/видео.html check out my film I’m a freelancer with no uni degree cause I don’t believe in paying thousands of dollars for privatized art education that’s not what art is supposed to be about
@@AX1Abut we want to go to school you ppl never understand joy of being ppl w ppl similar to u
I've never been so determined, im going to go here, ill do anything it takes, one day.
Good luck!!
@@scribblediary237 thank you
You sound tired- is it stressful? Are you getting enough sleep? Just wondering because when I don’t get enough sleep my mental health goes down the drain so I’m wondering if I’d be able to deal with all the work at Calarts. It’s like my dream school but I’ve heard it’s really draining
Art schools are always draining, but so is any profession your trying to master.

YEEESS please keep posting videos like these. I know it’ll probably be hard to balance with your school work but it is so inspiring and inspirational to see someone actually living my dream.

Always enjoy looking at an artist work in progress and sketches. Nice video and music.
As an animation nerd I would kill to attend CalArts and get a job at Pixar. But it must be hella expensive. How do you afford it?
I think you can pay the student loans until 80? That's what I've heard
Colleges should be free as well as sanity, I don't know how can americans tolerate those kind of things
@@mr.condekua6141 well, here in america the industry is shit.
If we want to make a little bump in history, or at least our name mentioned, we have to be subject to excessive pain, work, luck and most of all, having the determination to go all the way and suffer this. Knowing that its possible it won't add up to nothing.
But that little gap of light, that micro percentage that we might just make a change is more than enough to inspire us to get up every morning.
And never EVER, letting someone tell us that our dream is impossible. Even if it is.
With all that said
ur right mate, i also dont get it.
Im betting she probably has wealthy parents or she got a scholarship.
@@theentertainment3674 you don't have to have either of those to go to a expensive college, my mom sure isn't rich but still went to a pricey college with the help of my grandparents and with her hard work.
this is my dream. i want to excel at character design and animation and get the highest degree i can. my whole life has been leading up to getting into this school, ever since i started seriously drawing at the youngest age i can remember, 4. i still to this day work hard to try and get into this school.
your voice is so calming and pretty! also you have reeeaally nice art! love this video
Absolutely devoted to your art, i hope you make it one day to a great Studio :)
ivan vera Thanks so much!
So great to see a video from you, I went out looking at your RUclips channel just last night! I have missed seeing your beautiful watercolors, and was thrilled to have you share one today!
Hope you are having a blast!!! Keep up the good work!
corikay thank you so much! Comments like this are so Motivating!😍😍
Even though my dream is to go to this school I know I can’t, it’s too expensive and away from my home (Georgia) But I want to be a animator and go to SCAD hopefully! This videos really help me see like the “inside life” of collage as a animator!
When you want to go there but 1 you're from another country and 2 you don't have any money... Sad. But I love watching these types of videos. A lot. I learn from them a lot and, in a certain way, I see them as classes for myself. Watching what people do, how they do it, taking tips and lessons just by observing meticulously... Interesting. And so cooool!
J. David oof I know it’s crazy expensive. But there’s a lot of discussion going on about how art school got too expensive and there are already really good online alternatives! Maybe look into the online classes from Schoolism and Aaron Blaise. You can basically learn everything there if you are committed to the classes! And about being from a different country, most people in character animation including me are international! So there is a good chance that you would get in anyways! Good luck 😊
@@scribblediary237 Thanks for the tips! I mean, I would try applying but the thing about being international (in my case) is that it is more expensive than someone who's from the u.s. Tuition in general, flying, transportation, living expenses, food, (in some cases esl classes), etc. That's money that my family and I don't have. And the level of experience is waaayyy higher compared to someone from a third-world country (like me, hi :v .) I don't stand a chance compared to people with a GPA of 4.0, who've had AP Classes before, and that have lots of artwork that look like they came out of Pixar. Idk... But I'm definitely going to check Schoolism and online classes from Aaron Blaise (hope their not expensive ;-;. ) Thank you for recommending them! And enjoy Calarts as much as you can. I've known some people who've gone there and they've build so many beautiful memories and lots of experience. 😄😄
Merry Christmas Kim!!! I loved the art you made this semester, can’t wait to see what you make in the next one!
Wong Fred Thanks fred you are the cutest! Can't wait to See what you make as well😍😍
Does calarts have mandatory math, science, English, history etc. classes?
MilkyLeche Yeah a little bit
when I finish school I wanna go to Cal arts
How much do you have to pay per month? Did you get a scholarship?
Your art is so amazing wow! 💕✨
Thanks so much!!
is it competitive since most of you do already know your stuff? how is the grading system like? and what valuable lessons have you gained from calarts?
Love your videos, please post more about your life at Calarts!! : )
what do u think of calarts so far? do you like it? is the food good? how are the teachers? sorry if this is so many questions but I just really want to know more about Calarts since I am applying for character animation for 2018.
Kristen L CalArts is Amazing, I love it so far! The food is fine, it deffinatly could be better but theres always good Salad and we have an awesome Taco tuesday! I just really dont like the meat. Good luck with your application :)
I've never been this determined in my life. I'LL DO ANYTHING TO GO TO THIS SCHOOL
Young Kang any updates?
@@roselynholdbrook8167 :( I wish
i love these types of videos
where did you find that watercolor sketchbook?? I'm trying to find one similar to that for my application but I cant find any big enough :(
Kat O'Brien i have it back home so i cant Check the name but I think it was by Hahnemühle :)
I'm only 14 and I have very little experience with animation, but I would love to get into it, does anybody have any tips?
Ian Fink hi! I’m 15 and I’m in a similar situation. Aaron Blaise(creatureartteacher.com) has a free animation course and lots of other courses deeply discounted ( I would recommend the human anatomy course it’s helped me improve a lot) and figure drawing you can do on sites like lineofaction, quickposes and croquis cafe. If you have the app procreate or flipaclip you can make animations on those.
@@scarlettwilkins6043 Thank you, very much appreciated.
Great vlog, hope to see more since I'm walking the same path. Love your song choice too, would love to know who the artists behind the peaceful music.
ahh sehr cooles video! Danke, dass du mit uns deine Umgebung geteilt hast! schade nur dass du so wenig über das Programm erzählt hast, das würde mich sehr interessieren (bin selber Animationsstudent in Prag)... wie sehen eure Stundenpläne aus? Wie viel müsst ihr zeichnen, wie frei ist das Programm, wie viel Zeit hat man für Freunde, etc? Mich würde auch interessieren, wie sich für dich anfühlt in den USA zu studieren, Kulturschock?! xD xD Verstehe natürlich, dass das Themen sind, die du nicht gleich der ganzen Welt erzählen möchtest, aber ich glaube da wäre großes Interesse nicht nur von meiner Seite!! keep up the good work
Hi! Jaaa sorry irgendwann mach ich darüber vielleicht auch noch ein Video aber momentan hab ich meine Kamera daheim gelassen 😂 der Stundenplan ändert sich von semester zu semester, normalerweise hab ich immer so 6 bis 9 Stunden unterricht an einem tag! Dieses Semester hab ich kaum Kurse am morgen sondern eher welche die bis abends gehen was ich persönlich lieber mag weil ich am morgen viel besser an Hausaufgaben oder meinem kleinen filmchen arbeiten kann find ich! Jedes jahr wird erwartet das jeder einen animations Kurzfilm selber macht, der irgendwas zwischen 1 Minute und 7 einhalb Minuten ist und das is unser Haupt Projekt. Meine klassen sind Character Animation, Storyboarden, zwei mal Akt malen, Layout, Visual Development oder Color oder design, Cg, film Workshop und dann immer zwei extra Kurse die nix mit animation zutun haben für meine Note. Je länger man in der schule is desto länger kann man den Stundenplan auch selber erstellen, nur film Workshop und akt malen und character animation hat man immer!
Mir macht das so spaß hier! Auch wenn es natürlich irgendwie zeit aufwendig ist immer, is bei dir ja sicher genauso, stört mich das nicht wirklich weil ich jeden tag mehrere Stunden mit meinen Freunden zusammen hocke unf am film arbeite, also auch wenn wir vor allem im zweiten Semester nicht viel "Leben" außerhalb vom Studium haben ist das nicht schlimm, weil alle zusammen im gleichen Boot sitzen. Und wenn ich wie gestern so gaaarkeine Lust mehr auf Bildschirm hab dann gehen wir alle manchmal was essen oder treffen uns alle zusammen und zeichnen auf Papier oder quatschen einfach nur mal so. Die sind mitlerweile echt wie eine zweite Familie für mich.
Zum Thema Kultur Schock ist es natürlich voll anders hier, aber ich fang vor allem dieses jahr an Los Angeles richtig zu mögen gerade weil es so komisch und anders is. Icj glaub echt der mensch is anpassungsfähiger als man glaubt.
So!! Tut mir leid das war ja eine ewige Antwort! Ich hoffe aber das konnte dir bisschen weiter helfen, ganz ganz viel Glück bei deinem Studium auch!😊😊
I am not an animator but I want it and I will be I will not let you insult me or what I do because it is what I do and I think you do what you like, whatever makes you happy, pursue your dreams.
Can you do a calarts tour?
Merry Christmas. Isn’t Cal arts right by Magic Mountain.
Jacob 31363 yeah it's pretty close
Does calarts have dorms?
Paeunia yeah!
Jesus, she’s so beautiful
I love ur vidéos
Hi there! Love your work!! I'm currently studying animation too (not in calarts unfortunately) but I do wanna ask, I notice most of your homework, like the story, are done with pencil and paper (traditional). Is it obligatory to use traditional drawing or is it bcus of your personal preference?
Delia Fabri Hi there! Mostly we do our story homework digitally but sometimes we do it on paper too. I prefer digital but I feel like I learn more when drawing on paper somehow. For this weeks assignment we can choose if we work on paper or with sharpies
Someday.. I'll be in those halls..
This is great your art looks lovely, I would love to live out my dreams being at calarts, how is it there?
Hey. Happy New Year Hope your having fun. I got a question. How many people usually live in a dorm and is the dorm part of the over all tuition or nah? Thanks. Good luck at calarts hope to attend someday
Jacob 31363 usually two people in one dorm room, and no the rooms are extra. Check the calarts Website! The normal dorms are called chouinard hall
Scribble Diary thanks
Scribble Diary and can you post more calarts videos it really inspires me. If you can’t I understand your most likely busy with all your homework
Hopefully someday I’ll go to a good college and get a profession as a digital artist or someone who draws cartoons, hopefully someday 😁
Paper yessss good luck!!❤️
I think your Amazing..
I don’t want to be nosy but how can u afford Calarts?
AHH YOUR A WATERCOLOR MASTER! ALSO whats the song at the start called? 😅i like it. It gives a vibe.
Maxaurus Thank you!! And the Song is called Wheel of Life by Declan Miller. I dont know if it's online though I bought his CD years ago in a pub 😂
Hello, I have a question, what type of classes do you have to take at calarts for animation and before you graduate, like did you have any experiences or no😋💖
So far I had to take story, digital Methods, CG, traditional character animation and life drawing. I have done life drawing before
@@scribblediary237 oh ok thank you so much for telling me and good luck with CalArts💖
I think I will give up on calarts unfortunately because the fees are too high for my parents to afford. Travel expenses+living expenses+supplies expenses.
Also its very very farm from where I live.
.
Sadlyf
Same here 😥
Was the 3D animation program you were using blender? Looks great!
Ashley Hicks thank you! Nooo that's Autodesk Maya ☺
Scribble Diary oh really that's so cool! I didn't know anyone but disney pixar could use maya, that's awesome. Do you only get access because it's calarts or could any school or animator use it?
Ashley Hicks anyone can use it. It’s free for students and super expensive for everyone else haha
Whats the song that plays in the beginning called?
The Blue Cockade by Show of Hands
This is my dream
hi! what standards do i need to meet for a scholarshipp?
I feel sad because I will never study at CalArts.
can you show more of the hall way works
Hello! I have a question: what does demographic makeup of each class year generally look like? I'm attending a regular university right now and am interested in saving up some money and coming here when i am in my late 20s. how many students are straight out of college and how many were working adults?
I'd say most students went straight out of highschool, mostly with a gap year inbetween, so most people are about 20 years old here as freshmen. But we also have a bunch of students that have been going to college before or working already, so some of my classmates are around 30 as well.
might I ask how hard it is to get in and was there certain expectations that you had that wernt met
E.M.A i think the acceptance rate is 7 percent, and so far all my expectations were met luckily!
Hey I think you might know but me and my friend want to attend in a few years but are pets allowed
You can bring your pets to a few classes and if it's an emotional Support animal your pet can live in the dorms
I read that you got a scholarship for this school? How did you get it?
Kayla i just applied for it :)
Is it easy? Cause I want to do that when I’m older
Evan Roussy It can be Kind of difficult sometimes but I think it's fun that way!
Scribble Diary ok thanks 👍
how old i need to be to enter in calarts?
Nicole Giostra i don't know, the youngest Person in our class is 17 i think. Maybe Check the website?
Graduate highschool i think.
Do you have an Instagram or something I could follow you on? I’d love to see more of your art.
Scrungus Thanks my instagram is kim.mcmahon 😊
Scribble Diary Hey what's the name of the song playing in the background in the beginning. I love it so much
CalArts is my dream collage and i am taking a bunch of classes and working hard on school so i can get in
Jenny good luck!! Did u apply this year?
Scribble Diary i can’t yet i but i will as soon as i can
Scribble Diary can you apply for more than one class ( like i want to do art and voice acting)
Jenny I mean if you are studying art then sometimes you can talk to the acting teachers and ask if you can take some of their classes. I know some of my animator friends take dance lessons too
Scribble Diary ok thank you!。😁
the song that you are playing throughout the video, what's it called?
Cesar Diaz the Wheel of Life by a guy called Declan Millar!
Thankyou!
Hey!!
Is your class full of recent high school grads or are there some older people in them as well (20-25 years old)
Both! We have some over 30 year old people and some 18 year old people. Most of us are around 20 and 21 I think!
Scribble Diary Okay good because I’m 22 and I want to apply here but I was mostly worried because of my age.
@@2010Hershey nooo dont u worry! We usually have a whole range and it really comes down to how much u love drawing and not ur age :) so you will be good I am sure!
WICH IS THE SONG FROM 4:16??
I m about to graduate from high school and I really wanna become a 3D animator. Can I get into calarts with my 3D animation portfolio?? Sorry to bother you again =}
Ballu Check their Website! I'm not really sure About the Experimental admissions
Scribble Diary ok thank you!
You are so beautifull !!
Aaaa thank you!
Drawing see good 😉😉😉😍
Does Cal Arts require any college degree? Or do you just need your high school diploma?
kou high school Diploma is fine!
i'm 13, and i'm planning on going to calarts for animating. so how fun and how worth it is this school, and what should i know to survive going here? ^-^
WILL I MAKE A LOT OF FRIENDS!?!?!?
where did you learn to draw/paint?
I just like doing it so I try to do It a lot and keep getting cool books and stuff!
@@scribblediary237 Nice! so you did not have any formal lessons before calarts?
@@XGAMEST no not really
@@scribblediary237 how do you know how/what to improve without a mentor?
You need to be rich in order to go to college in usa
Hello , I want to become a 3d character animator and I can't really draw.. what can I do to get interview in cal arts
Ballu maybe try applying for the Experimental Animation program instead of the character animation one. I think it's a bit easier to get in there drawingwise
Scribble Diary alright thank you , appreciate it :)
OH HELL
i love it!
Do you have Instagram account maybe?
rico yes! It's kim.mcmahon
Are you paying for CalArts? Or do you have a scholarship?
Cesar Diaz i got a scholarship and am paying for the rest
When you say your paying for the rest, are you talking about the dorm? And the classes are free?
.
Cesar Diaz no classes Cost the most. Check out the Website !
Thank you! Sorry for all the questions. lol.
heyyyyyy
Oh no u found it
first
do you have instagram account?
jesse pinkman yeah it's kim.mcmahon 😊
The school for foreign students annual 44.799$ Okay goodbye my dreams I'm stuck in Turkey fuck.
Pink Liquid yeah it's ridiculous
In my country community and the goverment don't value the art and we don't have the ability to work. A lot of people are unemployed who graduate from art school.There is only one animation school in Turkey just think about.. I feel so bad for myself. I'm searching for scholarships but I can't have enough information.
Whats your instagram account if you have on ☺️
Keano Keano it's kim.mcmahon !
Thanks for the video hope you read the bible and understand Gods wisdom
if you haven't yet, make a change, turn your life to Christ if you don't want to go to hell and burn forever( Matthew 16:24, John 3:16, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10,John 14:6
)
Many people will disagree and mock you trust me, but its worth it for an eternity praising our Creator. As Jesus said "if they hate you remember they first hated me"(John 15:18). Read the KJV bible, start from the New testament. God bless you
Hehe no thanks :)
@@scribblediary237 Jesus said ' whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.'(Mat 10;33) if you reject Christ he will reject you and you will be in pain forever in hell feeling the wrath of God
Alęx TM that’s fine with me but thanks for the warning :)
