Hi there! I started learning 3D in 2020 during the pandemic. I'd always loved animation but had never fully realised it was something I could learn until I saw YouTube videos of student work. My final school exams were cancelled and so with nothing else to really do, this was my perfect chance to start learning. So in June, I enrolled on an online art school, Animschool, and despite waking up for classes for 5am (I live in the UK so class times were rarely convenient) I found that I loved learning about 3D and making models. Since then, I spent my gap year pushing my 3D and artistic skills before starting university this October. At the moment, I'm juggling my time between getting a computer science degree and attending online 3d art classes. My goal is to hopefully get a summer internship this year!
