News of stuff

I've gotten the OK from department chair Eric Tao to run an animation course during the winter break. The course (if everything goes right) will have a double emphasis. One thread of the course will be targeted primarily at high school and community college types who want a working introduction to Maya and 3D modeling. The other thread will be a lab/workshop scenario where Spencer Lindsay and I will help CSUMB students fine tune their modeling and animation skills, with the emphasis being on professional level production. I'd love to get your input on what you think will be most helpful for newbies and for Otters wishing to upgrade their skills to professional level.
