I have another question........ is it possible to go to school for just maya? (or comparable 3d software) I mean Id like to learn everything I can about 3d animation and modeling but I dont want to have to take other courses like english, math, sci, history etc.......
or is schooling not necessary? Can I learn what I want just from practice, reading, forums and online tutorials?
