      ANONYMOUS  I agree, 3d Schools are way too expensive.

      There are many help tutorials out there from 3d animators for 3d animators. Ask them questions and most of them are more than happy to help you.

      ANONYMOUS  Actually there are great schools out there. Just that they make up about 10 % of the 3D schools so finding the right ones are hard. I am a professional animator and my school was useless excpet for the internship that I got that got my foot in the door. (I would pay the $34,000 all over again just for that as I see how very very hard it is to get in the door.)

      Animation Mentor is a A+++ school and am thinking about going just for the way advanced teaching by some of the industry greats. Don't learn in isolation. Worse thing to do as an aniamtor.

      My two cents.
