I got my start in Maya in the year 2000 at 3D3 World, doing the 4 week program over the summer. And what a great start it was - I have since gone on to work for some of the best game and film companies in the world, including Electronic Arts, LucasArts, and Walt Disney Animation Studios. That first course at 3D3 World allowed me to create a great first demo reel, which in turn got me into the postgraduate degree course at the Bournemouth University NCCA. It also allowed me to meet and work with other great artists, who became long-time friends. I think that if I had to do some retraining today, I would go back to 3D3 World - you can't beat the staff, the location, or the facilities

I had an amazing time with 3D3 World. I was able to learn more in one month than I had all year in uni. The course is very well structured and starts with the core elements of Maya, ending at an advanced level. In a month they cover everything you need: modelling, texturing, shading, lighting and dynamics. Moreover they will teach you all the little tricks which help you work faster and more efficiently. George Snow, the head trainer, guides you through the process of character animation- from modelling, to rigging, choreography, expression and timing. You could spend years learning the programme but with someone like George at your side these 4 weeks will push you to a level you cannot imagine.

I did the 4 week program in June 2009. I had experience with 2D software and wanted to learn 3D. The first days, I found it so complicated that I thought I would never be able to do something with Maya by my own. But after that time in 3D3 World with the very patient teacher and some more practice, the course proved to be a good springboard since I'm now creating 3D sets with that fascinating software- which was the purpose of taking the course. The Cortona branch of 3D3 World is situated in a spectacular place, very inspiring and with welcoming people and delicious food. I loved my stay there- I would go back anytime.
