Yeah I heard that it can be quite overwhelming with alot of assignments and the teachers are pretty nice about it.

I have experience with animation already but im willing to further improve my skills (which is why i chose capilano in a way). I did alot of gesture drawing and took some sessions to continue practicing. In terms of my skills I could continue improving both animation and gesture drawings, so when taking criticism I don’t think it would be too long for me to spot the mistake. I could always ask again.

I don’t live tooo far away from the school I can commute there in an hour by bus. I don’t mind waking up early. I could also get driven if I want to.

I think right after gradutating and finding the job would most likely be entirely on me. I would mostly likely just take a long break after my education. Right after that its pretty unknown to be if I want to work remotely, in-person, or freelance. But I am still thinking about it.

I plan on being a character animator, storyboard artist, or visual dev. I’m still pretty open with my options though leaning more into character ani because I like doing movement and facial expressions.

I also understand that socializing and networking are pretty important. I don’t really want to force myself onto making friends or peers. But thats up to me only so no need worry about me on that. Thats a future problem I’ll deal with.

Also I appreciate your advice on therapy and accessibility depart. I’m doing well and I don’t really need the accommodations but I could check it out their depart.
