I worked at Flux, an animation studio for about 5-6 months when I was 16 as a flash animator so you can imagine how much competition there is around here. There are two big animation studios in the country, and that's just not enough for me :P I want competition, I want excitement!
Also I want to meet one of my animation heroes Bobby Chiu, who's motivated me enough to believe in myself and that its more about how much work you put into it rather than how much talent you were born with. I set up an Auckland sketchbook following his Torronto sketchbook group where I get together with other people and we sketch on the streets of Auckland! It's great fun  You've read the rest of the story from my story page, but yeah I want to reach my dreams and northing's gonna stop me :]
Right now I'm on a scholarship for a graphic design school, so because I don't owe any money to the government right now, this is the best time to be working on my project  !
Well my host gives me unlimited size limits, well up to 20 gb that is :P I'm on dreamhost , it never disappoints me

I understand now. That is a great dream. I used to recruit 3D animators here in Dallas, and we found many of them through Craigslist.org. In 1999, when the animation company made the Fox TV movie The Night of Headless Horseman and Master P's 3D animated music video Soujas , they got many of their animators from the Canadian school you spoke of. They used to be the only place that offered an excellent program. Now they get many from Art Institutes because they are closer. I wish you all the luck in the world for your dream. I think you will make it.
