muz i have like foundation which is related or will a SAM cert qualify me for it?
and must i be able to do pretty good sketches or will it be taught there if needed? thanks a lot in advance for all replies.

QUOTE(Drag102 @ Mar 30 2012, 03:34 PM) hi every1. wanna ask a little opinion. i'm interested in taking diploma in illustration at the one academy. but after i got 7a in spm, my dad really wants me to take engineering. should i take illustration, which has always been my passion or engineering like my father told me to? my dad always try to talk me out my choice like talking about job prospect n stuffs. what's ur guys' opinions? haha. u sound like me back when i was done with SAM in taylors. i wanted take graphic design in TOA but my dad ended up asking me do engineering. well cant argue with dad cuz he paying not me so engineering lo. 4 years later. i think i'm gonna enroll in TOA for digital animation at the age of 23. in the end its up to u. did engineering and didnt enjoy it cuz i guess i wasnt doing something i want. its either u choose what u want to do or whats convenient for you to do. ur call bro XD all the best  QUOTE(inachi @ Mar 31 2012, 10:33 PM) aiming for ur passion is correct. but u must think issit becasuse u like to draw thats why u think u wan to take diploma in illustration? bczo i have alot of friends who join illustration and find that they just like to treat drawing as hobby but not a job forever. and he's right too XD This post has been edited by valor89: Mar 31 2012, 10:36 PM |

QUOTE(Drag102 @ Apr 2 2012, 12:04 AM) i heard that if you take diploma, then they will teach you the basics of drawing. Some of TOA students were weak in drawing when they started attending TOA but after learning the basics, they can draw like a pro. But then again, it depends on whether you are serious when learning the basics or not. yup very serious about it. so they wont reject even if i cant draw very well la? |
