I came, I saw, I bumped!

GD moves fast today... here's another free bump of visibility!

Also another question: Is there any way for you guys to touch on the new Singed skin, to give the poisoned mark a bit more visibility? Maybe purple poison bubbles floating up could work...

Sion's animations absolutely suck.
He's a big guy with a huge ax but he takes tiny little baby swings. Make him smash and cut things up with it like Garen, Jarvan, and Darius.

When Talon does his W he needs to spin.

Shen needs to sheathe his swords less. Make it a cool move for Vorpal blade and Critical strikes.

Nasus needs better attack animations, more slicing and smashing(especially with DK Nasus) and less tapping with the butt end of his spear/ax/staff. I'd like to see attack animations like Hecarim

Hey guys, I'm starting this digital animation program at BCIT this fall and in it you learn how to use Autodesk Creative Suite, ZBrush, CrazyBump, Adobe Photoshop, After Effects. Here is a quick look at the program: http://www.bcit.ca/study/programs/6435cert I just had a few questions about the program and getting into the industry.

My biggest concern is that programs like photoshop and all those programs is that they are pretty expensive and once I get out of BCIT I will have to buy them, which I can't afford. Did you get hired right after you were done your schooling? Are you self taught? Do you have those programs on your computer at home? What do you suggest to people looking to get into the animation industry?

Thanks in advance!

I saw, I bumped, I came.

Hello,

So yeah, these programs are often geared for studios and professionals- and they are VERY expensive. My best advice to you is to take advantage of your student status while you are in school. There are lots of ways to get discounts and obtain cheap/free student licences that sometimes persist even when you leave school. (At least there were when I was in school)

I don't know the current best ways to do this- but I bet if you ask all of your classmates they will be happy to share with you how/what they got for themselves. Your best resource will be your fellow students.

As far as being self-taught... well I think that term is somewhat misleading. Most artists I've worked with have gone to some sort of art school- but at the same time, any successful artist has taken their education largely into their own hands. In that sense- every artist is "self-taught". Teachers (good or bad) can't force you to be hungry and make a ton of artwork. Think of school as a place to meet and interact with other people who want to learn (sort of an XP boost... hehe). Your classmates will be your best resource. Share everything you know with them.

You may feel rivalry with the other students at times- but never let that sabotage an open exchange of information. Best advice I ever got: Your goal is to be the "best" group of students in the world, and not the "best" student in your group.

Hope that helps! Best of luck to you.

I have found that whatever looks/sounds hilarious while being Shift + x spammed is favored.

Nautilus' laugh is easily one of my favorite emotes, to use and to spam. I love how it is accompanied by a unique animation, as opposed to just him lifting his shoulders and laughing or something like that in a 'normal' laugh.

I actually got an interesting question.

When using a skill that resets a champion's AA, (like Trundle's and Leona's Q,) it starts to hinder dps once their attack speed gets higher, (and I've built a Leona with 5 Phantom Dancers before, Q costed me a kill.) Was it ever suggested to make animations like that move faster at higher attack speeds? Or possibly different animations if it looks weird or something? That would be really helpful.
