Hey everyone, in this video I wanted to circle back to an old series I started over 5 years ago and share my concluding thoughts on my experience going to college for game art. I hope this can help some of you thinking about doing the same, and either prepare you for the experience or shed some light on why it might not be for you.

This whole video is going to break down my experience from student to working as a Sr. Environment Artist and how college played a role in that. Because of so its going to be filled with tons of personal biases, so please keep that in mind while watching.

If you have any questions be sure to include them in the comments and I'll try my best to get back to you on them,.

have a great day :D
