The thing is (I say this out of personal experience) you can't rely on anyone to teach you properly. Everything is just an addition to what you know, including colleges and animation schools. That's why just grab whatever you have to animate and do whatever you can, the best you can do it. The more you do something, the better you get at it. Just don't give up, if you're serious about it.
I've been practicing on 3-D animation with blender. Its a free 3-D animation software you can get it at blender.org. To become a 3-D animator is my passion and dream. I grow up with toy story and I watch all three of them. I was to poor to pay for any 3-D animation software like renderman. So I found blender and it is awsome. Its pretty easy just takes some to get use to. Oh and theirs plenty tutorials for blender on youtube and ebook's. I Hope this info was helpful.
Heads up renderman isn't a 3d software it's for rendering and it's free! for commercial and I think you can finally use it for blender!! but the comment is old so you probably know by now lol!
I think what Allan was saying is that you don't have to wait until you're 18 to start learning how to animate. You just have to wait until you're 18 to join Animation Mentor. But it's never too early to start learning on your own. Victor Navone, animator at Pixar since Monsters Inc, is self-taught.
They just want people that at least finished high school as they really can't risk lil kids not paying attention, having learning issues or worse, distracting everyone in class. The latter would be really awkward.
@@Breadloaf-kr4gi I'd kind of advise against that. There's a world of difference between still images and animation. Sure, still images are useful to get more comfortable with the idea of posing nice figures with proper line of action and whatnot. Yet, you should make the jump to animation asap if you don't struggle with posing.
when the video turns black and white so you know some inspirational info is gonna come.
This maya software is so old, but his teaching is still so gold. Still one of the best polishing thought process vid

Nineth Lion do you still stand by this 6 years later
Blender Guy at the end of the day it’s up to you to learn and really push it but don’t underestimate what a teacher from Pixar can teach you
Thanks Mr Michael for your polishing advise and for taking time to share this amount of wisdom with the rest of the the world at large.
Why are they recording him in prison?

VIDEO: Animation Polishing Tips by Pixar Animator
It's funny because Michał Makarewicz is actually Polish name :D
Great video, it's amazing how much better hands feel after those tweaks. Thanks, Doctor Makarewciz!
Pixar OMG I love them❤ I love all animation studios industries in all over the world :D
The fact that he used Maya 8.5 caught me by surprise
just curious but how long did it take for you to do this short animation from start to finish?
Love the polishing technique

Thank you very much for this inspiration.
I am a 3d animator. I use NewTek LightWave to animate. What is the difference between LightWave and Maya?
lol.jonah i was just on your blog. great stuff!
So old yet so true.
What is the guy saying in the animation?
Thanks
I did not expect he uses windows 95 XD
***** ohhh so windows 95-98 supports more than 4g of ram?
The art is in the artist, not in the software.
it is windows xp
the flicking from coloured to black and white is distracting
I am a 3d animator I use LightWave. I use 4 windows while animating

Whose shot is it?
This is my uncle!
Isabella Makarewicz Cool! He's a legend.
Isabella Makarewicz
Lol can you tell your uncle to hook up a job
You must be proud of him, I bet you can ask him for a custom animation on every birthday.
Who is watching this during the 2020 coronavirus pandemic?
AM is actually offering a summer intro to Maya course now. Check it out!
I don't really think anyone watching this would mind the video being three or four times longer, unlike the guy said.
Lol... The dialogue is funny

I love the way they always get the most poncy bloke to explain shit like this.
Watching this in 2018. Maya's UI is ancient as fuck.
