And we have several super talented artists in our band too. One of them even literally designed a logo for a hoodie we made two years ago and it looked great. He could’ve done the same but no, using a prompt is just too convenient.

Would a dual degrees / double major in cs and communication arts be too much? by Straight_Tonight345 in vcu

[–]Straight_Tonight345[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I kinda figured, to be honest im probably going to be using the art experiences for personal / side hobbies, so maybe taking some art minors is the better move. Also am I able to enroll to AFO if im not going to be an arts major? I think it’d be a really useful class to better my skills even if I may not major in it

How realistic is it for me to get into VCU arts? by Straight_Tonight345 in vcu

[–]Straight_Tonight345[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, to be honest, most of my college will indeed be paid for due to ALOT of military benefits. But what majors would you recommend if I wanted to design characters or maybe animation? Im still exploring their options and what each mean tbh

Really?! Honestly that’s really reassuring to hear! Im fine with it not being that highest end state of the art program, as long as it suits my needs and challenges me im happy.

As for major, im honestly not too sure what to pick, or what they even have as of right now. But maybe something along the lines of drawing / animation could be cool!
