What Shad’s Students are Saying
Shad is Fantastic
Shad is fantastic! Not only does he make every class fun, he covers so much every class. He really likes to make sure we understand what we’re doing and takes time to talk to each one individually. I’ve learned so much from him in such a short period of time. He also teaches us so many technical tip and tricks to make our workflows so much faster.
Pushes His Students to a Higher Level
I am very happy about being in Shad`s class. He has a great sense of storytelling and humour. He’s very polite and fair to his students. His critiques are very detailed with an eye for everything in a shot. He challenges his students and brings them to create perfect poses and good timing. He supports the students’ stories and he always has good advice. He pushes his students to a higher level. He makes things hum. Bravo and thank you very much to let us learn from such a great mentor.
Very Interactive
Shad gives great insights into the industry and his journey to becoming an Animator. His teaching method is very interactive, because he gives everyone an opportunity to speak. It helps a lot when he demonstrates body mechanics in Maya as well as acting them out himself.
Super Animator
Shad is a super animator and a really cool dude. Shad always gives very detailed critiques and is always open to talk about various topics in animation. His Q&A’s are always fantastic and his demonstrations always increase my knowledge and interest in animation.
