If you guys have ever dreamed of working on projects such as Shrek and The Incredibles, then this school is for you. I had a chance to visit The Laguna College of Art and Design. They are a 4 year college and they have majors in Fine Art, illustration, graphic design and Feature Animation. Some of their alumni work at pixar and Omation Studios. The faculty are all industry pros and the program is a full 4 years. The atmosphere is creative and serene. And the fact that it’s 2 minutes from one of the most beautiful beaches doesn’t hurt either.

The Feature Animation program is wonderful and you can check out their course listings here!

Notcot is one simple yet amazing site. The layout, the colors and the usability are just wonderful. More than all that, is the content on the site. People or the notcot kids upload cool images of stuff they like on the web and then link it to where it’s from. Most of them have little blurbs about the product or picture. It’s visually inspiring- I feel like i’m window shopping for insparation. We got tons of traffic by being mentioned on Notcot, I hope this returns the favor. I heart notcot.
