- My first week at the California Institute of The Arts is over! I documented some moments out of this week in this Video, such as me decorating my dorm room, exploring the cubes (Work space for us Character Animators) and so on. It has been great so far!
Ah this is so cool! I really can’t wait to (hopefully) study at calarts in a few years too.
-
Also a huge congrats on getting in! I saw your portfolio and it was truly incredible ☺️
Meppity Thanks so much! I hope you get in 😊
You did! I loved your portfolio
i am living in ukraine but have a big desire to study at calarts. HOW DO YOU HAVE MONEY FOR THAT? as i know, one year in calarts costs around 48 thousand dollars, if you convert that into hryvnas it is 1.300.000)))))))) so imma go and sit and cry.
samee! im from portugal and i really want to study at calarts but I MEAN adjskjfshdfjk
i still have like 4 years of school before college tho...
marta boavida Keep practicing save up money and you’ll be in for sure!!
Man, like the first two minutes reminded me of that scene from Toy Story 2 where that old toy fixer guy is repairing Woody?
Hi, I just got accepted to CalArts today!
Khang Do Congraaaats!! See you in a few months then!
How is calarts treating you?
Lucky
Congrats
CONGRATS!!.
Omg I am so happy for you! I hope this will be me one day!
Savian Jones good luck!!!
Thanks for this, I entered residence in the Cal Arts dorm in 1972 in Jules animation program. The two years that I was a student (72-74) were the most "golden" years of my life. I was 25 by that time and had been in the service (Vietnam), worked and done courses at Texas Tech, so my GI bill along with a 2/3's scholarship made it happen. (That was when the full years tuition was 2,700.00).
Sky David Wow that's Amazing! I Wonder how much the school has changed up until now
The landscape around Cal Arts was largely barren hills, no houses, the pool at the dorm was not built, the land was open and one could see the Cal Arts building from far away, from 5 for miles and the towns below. It was like the "Frankenstein Castle". What is the same is the white cinder block walls.
Sky David Thanks for answering! I was always wondering About that. There is one place called The end of the World where you can overview the Desert here,do you remember that?
I think that came just after I graduated in 1974. The campus was so exposed as the trees had not been planted, just barren. the only development was the golf course down the hill, North. In early 1974 hundreds of bulldozers leveled the hills to the east 5 to build the massive housing development. It was done so fast that houses were up by graduation with a line up of buyers. This was vast land holdings of the Newhall Ranch (the Hewhall's were friends of the Disney's). There is one person still teaching a Cal Arts who has been there since its beginnings at the Villa Cabrini campus, Michael Scroggins.
Sky David that’s awesome! My father is a veteran and I’ll be using the GI bill for school as well. I was worried about calarts not giving financial aid to people with a GI bill but your comment helps clear that up. :)
Congratulations! What a wonderful journey you are embarking on! You are very talented, and I do hope you will bring us along with you on this adventure! Thank you for sharing your first week! Have loads of fun!
Congratulations into getting into Calarts! This video was really inspirational for me. It's been a dream of mine to go to Calarts since I was in the 6th grade. I would love to get into Calarts when I get older but I am only in the 9th grade and I am literally stressing about it. I would love to keep watching your videos for the expirence you are having there.
Just some questions too:
1. Is your schedule busy?
2. Does Calarts accept scholarships? What type?
3. Did you have any second choices of art colleges in the US instead of Calarts?
4. Does your schedule allow you to have part time jobs?
Janimatics follow your dreams I hope to go there soon to
Janimatics hello! Thanks so much :)
1)Yeah the schedule is pretty busy, especially for character animation. All the Kids in other schools say that animation has the tightest schedule, especially with the extra homework. But you learn a lot too!
2)The school does accept scholarships and gives out scholarships too.
3) Yeah I also Applied to Ringling and CCA, I guess it's good to have a Plan B. A lot of my peers had to apply multiple times to get in.
4) Also You can squeeze in a Job next to your courses, bit I would recommend an on Campus Job in the student cafè for example, just so you dont lose much time. I didnt do that in my First year though to fully concentrate on what we learn.
And dont be nervous! You still habe plenty of time :)
its been 6 years you in yet?
Hey! I just got accepted to the photography & media program at CalArts, maybe we will meet in the future and maybe even do a collab! :) BTW hello from China
Marco Zhang congrats!!
Marco Zhang How is the the program there? I hope to study the same field in 2023
That's so amazing, I'd love to go to CalArts one day, right now I'm gonna apply to their Animation intensive. Thank you so much for showing this kind of information, You're such an inspiration!
Your vlogs are mesmerizing, please make more!!!
why does this video bring me to tears?????
excited for you, well done!
You make me smile very much. I hope we can maybe link up in Los Angeles or something one day and draw. It'd be awesome to meet with someone who loves sketching as much as you do.
That would be me in 2022. Hello from Peru.
Sameeeee
this is so fun to watch
Someday , someday
Your art inspires me so much and so i just keep re watching your videos 😅 can you still make more like these? (P.s your ske5chbook is amazing!)
Maxaurus thanks! !And i Wish I could but I left my camera at home so that I can Focus on school
I'm hoping with the 2020 crew!
Also weird question but
Are the bathrooms good quality?
Kevinobsessed it's ok if you and your sweet mates take good care of it
Scribble Diary Alrighty! Thanks 💙💙
Idk???😂😂
I really hope one day I can get accepted at calarts. I've wanted to go for years and I love animation ❣️
I live in the uk and I’m in year 9 (8th grade ) but I definitely want to go to CalArts
Hey that's really cool I really want to go to calarts too and Im preparing a portfolio is there a way I could talk to you about it, cuz I watch your videos and your art is simply amazing
GingerBreadJosh Thanks so much! And I wish you some good luck with your application :)
Hi!! congratulations for getting into Calarts!! I wanted to ask you how does the scholarship work, does people usually get any? I'm thinking about applying but I don't have enough money to pay for it, so even if I get in, I won't be able to go without scholarship, that's why I wanted to know :)
Demi Perfecvato hello! I am not sure About international students but I heard that most students from america will get a scholarship but maybe you should look that up on their Website, cause i am not sure :)
You can get financial aid if you life in america but I'm pretty sure that schools like calarts don't give scholarships
Well I did get all of my scholarships from the school so they actually do do that:)
I’m not from USA and my dream is entering to Calarts but for international students is very very expensive. Usually there is not economic help for us... Life is expensive
Rebeca Melo can relate it's kinda depressing
So inspirational
Cant wait
Hopefully I’ll be there in ‘23 for Photography
hopefully me in fall 2019 !
What the music your playing for this video? Is it from monsters university?
I wish I could afford to go to Calarts I've always wanted to go there it's been my dream.
From what I know you can get stuff like Scholarships and Financial Aid.
@@Luke-lq9rn I know that but I worry about the financial aid and scholarships being only barely enough to cover it. I worry about a lot tho lol
@@bubblegumteal3236 Same tbh.
I got waitlisted by them this year and it's the worst feeling... Ever. I wanted to ask you if you got in straight out of high school or did you transfer? :)
Hey, I’m currently debating if I should do IB (I’m from Australia btw) because I’m at a stage where I have to figure out what I want to do. And for a long time I really want to go to Calarts or ringling etc.
Since you’re an international student, did you do IB or Germany’s curriculum?
Mahala Truscott Hi there! Sorry I'm afraid I have no idea, even though I grew up in Germany I have the American citizenship so I'm technically not an international student on paper, so I never had to do any of that stuff luckily. But deffinatly Check out the Websites of those schools, they will tell you what you need. Good luck applying!
I hope I’m there in 2023
I think that’s their right year w8
Yep
Hopefully i can go to cal arts in 2021
Golden GT Same, I’ll be 18 hopefully heading there in 2021 too✨
Golden GT same lol!
Golden GT hope to see u there! ❤️
I’ve literally never seen anyone my age want to be an animator but me so this is cool and weird at the same time😂✨
Same :D
What classes so you take?
(Im paranoid about having to take math and science and english etc which I hate lmao)
1ns0mi4c we have to take critical studies which I hate and that will at some point include math and I am horrified About that😂 but the Rest of the classes are amazing! We take design, story, character animation, CG, life drawing nd stuff like that and all the teachers are greattt
I feel like this question is useless, but are all of those art supplies your's or does the school offer certain supplies/softwares as well?
longnaliu1234 they Dont offer any supplies sadly enough but they offer all the great Programs like maya and TV Paint and Photoshop and really great cintiq tablets and that's just great!!
Scribble Diary Gotcha. Thanks for the information!
Kim? What music are you playing in the background? It sounds like Monsters University. Is it?
Que suerte tienen algunos
Hey, congrats! Also, do you happen to know what happened to the calarts UA-cam channel? It hasn't posted anything in 2 years, and those animations where great.
character animation films are posted on vimeo now!
nededen ok thank you!
Did you get a scholarship? I just want to know cause I want go there so bad and I t sound interesting and if you did I want to know how?
Jacob 17 I asked the school for help and they gave me two scholarships to Cover my tuition. CalArts often helps when they like your portfolio and know you need some help paying
Scribble Diary thanks how do you dry the scholar ship
Did your family help you financially or did you take one of the financial aid programs? I am a simple teen thinking about going to Calarts some day and am worried I would need a part time job 😅
Hey! I have a question, do you have to drive around town a lot?
No not at all. I dont even have a car I just uber places if I feel like it!
Song or artist at 13:40 and on ?
Ahhh ich wusste nicht das du aus Deutschland kommst! Wie hast du es von Deutschland aus gemacht?
Arimono ich hab glücklicherweise die Amerikanische Staatsbürgerschaft aber man kann sich auch ohne bewerben. Schau dir einfach die Website an! 😊
Did you go to National portfolio day? I live in the U.K, But I wish to go there when I'm older, and attending profolio day would help increase my chances, but the dates seem practically impossible.
Aria Phoenixclaw i dunno i didnt go to any of those things even though they are probably very helpful. I heard good things About Summer session though so maybe consider that? A lot of those who got into calarts Summer session got in too :) good luck
Scribble Diary ooh thank you! That was a lot quicker than I thought haha, but I still have quite a few years ahead of me, so who knows
Do you have scholarships or something to deal with the enormous price? I want to go to CalArts too, but I can’t pay for it
Yes I was lucky enough to get one from school
I have question, is the dorm just for one person? Im kind of nervous bcs i just got an email telling me to file for admission~ 😫😫😫
Usually it's for 2 in chouinard hall, but you can apply for a Single room which is hard to get though, or in ahmanson hall which is expensive
@@scribblediary237 oh 😶😶😶
Hello! I’m actually planning to apply in CalArts next year (I’m currently a junior, but here in my country, we take up pre-college courses and I’m taking up visual arts) for Graphic Design. What kind of portfolio should I make in order to enter CalArts? Is there an entrance exam that I have to take? Thanks in advance!
Hii! I am so sorry I dont know anything about the Application process for graphic design because it's not my program, but if you Check out their Website you can find all the requirements there!
@@scribblediary237 lol hey!! i just found this video in my recommended again after some time and i just wanna say i got accepted into the graphic design program!! i’ll probably see you in fall?? haha it’s crazy how much things change in a year :)))
@@lehgendary833 congratulations! I know it’s really hard to get into graphic design so that’s amazing!! Not sure about entrance tests but I believe you won’t have to take one, at least they didn’t make us do one when I got there. Let’s hope everything works out and classes won’t be online, if so we will see each other in September!
@@scribblediary237 thank u so much!! and in regards to the entrance exams, i don’t think so either! i only had to write my artist statement and answer some questions that were related to my program while i was applying, haha! i’ve been in constant contact w/ my admissions counselor lately and she said that they’re still unsure if they’re going to have it online or through blended learning :,,) aaaa i hope things do get better so that we can finally meet each other 😊
@@lehgendary833 yeah I hope things go back to normal! Good luck to both of us that we can be on campus on your first and my last year
Wow, you was in Germany, what a great, i could say that you're a very talented girl. I wish be there, studying music... fucking money.
Hey congratulations getting into CalArts!!! I wanted to ask you, is it too late to start drawing? Because I really want to go into CalArts as well, but I have no drawing background :( the only drawing I've ever done was in 7th grade. But now I'm in my freshmen year of college and I want to pursue my dream of becoming a character animator. I've never got around drawing, but after seeing what you can do(like animating). Do you have any tips so I can start this journey?
Carlos Solis never to late it might be hard but you better start now
Carlos Solis hello,sorry for the late answer! It will probably be difficult, but if you are willing to work Hard and consistent then you will deffinatly make it! Even if it takes time. In my class we have the Most unbelievable stories of People starting to study character animation After they got their degree in law, and one guy is 30 and decided to go to calarts and live his dream. So dont worry!
You can start by Getting some Basic books that Cover many aspects of drawing, just to practice the basics and find out what you love. Then continue drawing what you love, for me that was drawing animals in the zoo.
Good luck!
Scribble Diary Thank you so much for the advice! I hope you have a good time at CalArts, and good luck. Also I love your channel. 😁
Jacob 17 Thanks I will, but I guess I have to challenge myself.
Carlos Solis I know this is late as heck but if you really want to get better, I suggest learning to draw from observation! Draw some contour drawings and work with different media! Also searching up things on UA-cam work too.
1:09 ?????? Are you washing your brush with soap???????
빚과부빚과빚과 isn’t that a normal thing to do?
How do you get the cubes?
Jacob 17 we sign up for them After one week of school. Everyone Gets one for the animations that we have to do on Paper :)
Scribble Diary do you have to pay extra sorry for all these questions.
Jacob 17 no worries! and no every character animation student Gets a cube! It's Part of the Program
Scribble Diary do you get to paint your cube
Scribble Diary wait nevermind just rewatched the video and heard you say that
do you have to share a dorm, or do you have it all to yourself ?
Most people in chouinard hall share but in ahmanson hall it's more expensive but u live alone!
Scribble Diary oh, do you know how much ?
@@bazinga4740 you can look that up on the Website I am sure!😊
Scribble Diary ok, ok thx :D
Did you need your own car when you were are CalArts? Cause I heard you would need one :(
Alle no i am in my third year of living on Campus so I usually just get around with walking and Uber. But at some point a car would be convenient. Even though you don’t need one
you are from germany? .-. and got accepted into calarts? .-. how did you do that? :(
SerenityDisney there are many international students in the Character Animation Program :)
Does your sister attend calarts as well? Because if so that’s awesome! If she does could you tell me her Instagram?
MilkyLeche she does! Her instagram is maya_likes_to_draw you should deffinatly Check it out😊
My dream is to get into Cal arts or Art Center but I'm from Turkey and if you know how turkey is you would know that how hard it is to pay any school in the US or even anywhere other then Turkey, but well I'm still to young I have 5 years to go to college and I hope that this won't stay as a dream.
BTW sorry if I misspelled something and congratulations!
Koko dont worry! A friend of mine here in my class is from Istanbul so it's not impossible :)
Thank you and congratulation for getting into Calarts!
