This post will serve as essentially as a toolkit to communicate, understand, and fight back against Generative AI. I hope it will be useful, and if you have any resources you’d like to share, please comment at the bottom! This page, since we are an animation-based company, will naturally gravitate towards animation or illustration-specific uses of generative AI.

Let this serve as a beacon for hope and positive progress towards fair AI policies globally.

Read Daisy’ story of how she came to both love animation and decide to pursue it seriously. There are many roads to Rome, and Daisy’s path took her to study at Emily Carr University in Vancouver, British Columbia.

The students that get accepted show up.  This is the first and most critical step.

How, as a parent, you can support your kid in studying animation. I get this question a lot as an animation tutor for students across the globe. Parents often don't know very much about the field or skills required for animation. Here is a list of my top tips for parents to actively support their child's dream of working in animation!

It is very common for applicants of Sheridan College’s Animation program not to get in the first time they apply, especially those who are applying straight from high-school. In fact, if you do actually get into Sheridan from high-school, you are in the minority! Most students take some kind of introductory College-level art program for a year or so, such as Art Fundamentals at Sheridan, or even take a year off to build up their skills on their own. As a company dedicated to helping students close the knowledge gap between many high-school art programs and what’s required to be accepted into Animation, we feel that we’ve created a better way to proceed, and that’s what this blog post is about.
