From illustration to animation and conceptual design, how did she get the grand slam of SVA, ACCD and other six schools? American art study There are also a large number of scholarships. Today, I would like to introduce to you a foreign student who is studying in a famous American art school this year for a grand slam offer: Wenyuan! Call Wenyuan Baby!

From SVA and Pratt at the forefront of New York's business to MICA focusing on personal shaping, Ringling at the wildlife paradise in the south, and ACCD and CCA6 schools with California style, you can choose at will! SVA has even provided a scholarship of 20000 yuan! Zero basis Conceptual design study abroad Please click "Full offer"

It's quite special. When Wen Yuancai came to study in Natural Light Art, he was still an ignorant freshman. He was introverted and didn't know much about illustration. He simply liked the second dimension, so he chose this major!

Wenyuan's Collected Works for Studying Abroad in Illustration Design

After two years of running in, from a green high school student to a small illustrator who can think independently and make decisions!

Let's see what kind of experience Wen Yuandu has gained in the process of creating his works

　　 1. Analyze the requirements of the school and clarify the self orientation

The requirements of the American Art School for Studying Abroad here do not refer to the school style. It is not worth the loss to pursue the school's preferences without losing its own characteristics. To clarify the requirements of the school is to understand what aspects of your ability the school wants to see.

What kind of abilities do the top American art schools want to see?

For example, it is often ridiculed as:

　　 ACCD, a science and engineering major in art schools, and SVA, the king of commercial illustration, have clear quantitative regulations on observation painting and body sketching However, other schools have not given a lower limit, which means that these two schools attach great importance to solid foundation.

With Autonomous proposition RISD and Parsons tend to prefer students with more unique style, rigorous logical thinking and more acute creative thinking

On the basis of understanding the school, Wenyuan can better match the school according to its own characteristics!

　　 2. Face problems and learn to resist pressure

The most impressive thing is that when Wenyuan reviewed her first work, the review teacher put forward a lot of modification suggestions. Wenyuan felt that she spent a lot of time and energy, but she didn't get recognition and cried out grievances! This will be a problem that students will encounter when they enter foreign art schools to study abroad in the future, or even when they enter the society!

The first reviewed work

Teachers in foreign schools will not praise you because you work hard, but will objectively point out your problems and give you suggestions to promote. Good or bad is bad, and no one will get used to anyone. Fortunately, Wenyuan has encountered this southern wall in China. With this experience, he can learn to better control his emotions to face pressure in the future.

　　 3. American art students should learn to make career plans for themselves

Wenyuan made a very important decision when choosing a school. From a long-term plan, she plans to move from illustration to animation and conceptual design. In order to respect the students' choice, we recommend adding the most conceptual ACCD and Ringling, the second animation, to apply for art study abroad on the basis of illustration selection, in preparation for later professional changes.

It is very happy that Wenyuan has won the olive branch of six schools with her solid foundation and unique humor. Whether she decides to go on the road of illustration or is ready to devote herself to a new profession in the future!

Now Wenyuan has the right to vote against her

What about the final result? Needless to ask, the American ACCD conceptual design has started~

Have seen Wenyuan's American art study Have you found a good foundation and aesthetics in your application experience, which has played a great role in the application for changing majors. Wenyuan not only showed her painting skills but also expressed her own ideas in illustration design. Studying abroad in conceptual design is still a major that can give full play to creativity and brain holes only based on solid basic skills, so it's easy to say everything else with good basic skills and the ability to analyze needs and generate concepts!

If you also want to change your major, you may face many uncertainties Wenyuan has faced!

For example:

* What factors were considered when deciding to change majors?

* What factors were not considered, but now I think we should pay attention to them?

* What unexpected difficulties do you encounter after changing your major?

* Does the original background help new science?

* What preparations can be made for the future industries?

With regard to these problems, the tutors of the training of Natural Light Art Overseas Students'Collections not only give students professional guidance, but also think about various problems that students will face in the future.

Pay attention to the root causes of students' emotions, answer questions and solve emotions from the position of instructors and "past people", and teach students how to kick off the "stumbling block" while teaching students professional skills. After all, solving the fundamental problem is to let art students cultivate good learning methods, good creative awareness Art literacy is not a simple training, but a fundamental education!

It is also because of adhering to such a concept that studying in Natural Light Art can better understand students and complete more personalized enlightenment on the basis of understanding and familiarity!
