I want to study Animation, I heard that TheOneAcademy is best for it.
But, TOA only offers diploma program for Animation, no degree program for it if i'm not wrong..
Based on the website, if i want to further my studies, i need to go to UK/US universities??

And i did another research about Lim Kok Wing, Lim Kok Wing offers foundation and Degree program.

TOA offers Diploma only?? Diploma 3 years
LimkokWing , foundation 1year + degree

It seems that limkokwing offers more and saves a lot of time..., BUT, i heard lim kok wing is bad at animation courses... so what to do??

Is there other college/ university provides foundation courses , degree and master courses for Animation in Malaysia???

If possible i want to further my study in Animation till Master in Malaysia because the cost of degree programme and master programme in overseas seem to be overwhelming O.o

hmm, if "Higher education doesnt mean anything in art & animation." Woudn't job finding is hard?? @.@ I think higher education can have higher chance of getting a job.

Hey, LZ Zach, are animators well paid in Malaysia? since, animation doesnt seems to be popular in malaysia.

oh, isn't it difficult to find a job at overseas? I'm thinking since Malaysia doesn't invest much in animation field, so the chance of getting a job in Malaysia is low. Even available, the pay must be abysmal if i'm not wrong...

Do you think studying animation is a right choice? I'm planing for my future, I don't want to end up with no job after i study animation especially the economy nowadays seem to be getting worse.

So, does animation provides a guaranteed future of getting enough pay to support my life in the future?

what about animator with 6-10 years working experience ?
Whats the maximum pay of being an animator?
What is the average pay for animators nowadays?

What are names of some popular or top studios in malaysia? @.@

Is it possible for Malaysians to take part in big companies like EA, Capcom, THQ, 2K, Ubisoft, Activision, Blizzard, pixar, dreamwork??? I suppose they wouldn't want to hire Malaysians since they got a lot of talanted people waiting for them to be hired in the foreign countries. Besides, do they have a studio in Malaysia as well?? Most of them are in Singapore instead of Malaysia.. The only studio i know available in Malaysia is Codemaster.

Malaysia's local studios are really bad though, i can't really see any portfolio from Malaysia's studio are able to compete with the foreign ones... I can't even convince myself to work with such lousy companies in the future.. What really inspired me to study animation in the future are from the top notch quality video games and movies, which let me gained interest in animations and effects. I want to create awesome stuffs which are created from the international awesome big companies, but not doing animation using lousy 3d blob heads. low res polygons, lousy textures products in nowadays Malaysia's studio. Think about Malaysia's most popular animated movie "Upin and Ipin"? Malaysia's most popular gaming industry "Cibmall" ?? Malaysia's movies ?? 3D industry in Malaysia is just plain terrible or maybe i'm just another spoilt child which played too much eye-candy video games, movies from the other countries which made me don't know how to admire the greatness of Malaysia's 3d industry?

LZ Zach, what do you think about Malaysia's 3d industry?? Will you still find animating interesting and fun if you are hired to work for some really bad quality products in the local companies? Do you think "Upin & Ipin" deserves the best animation award??
