i attended foundation.
the school building itself changed soo much, last time i went back i wished i had a chance to take some classes again.
i dont know how their depts evolved but from what i knew it aint all that great.. do they do BFAs yet?

Thanks... but i must say, ive been busy, and havent updated in 2 years :( i wish i could find the time, cause i have loads of fun stuff to show!

usrper, ya they do have BFA's
- usrper0
good.
i must say, i really respected some of the teachers there, i feel like they really got something to teach. unlike those overpaid, underachieving teachers from the school that i transfered to.
they didnt have BFA programs while i was there. thats one of threasons why i left (loser). they didn't have the giant pen box either.

When i was choosing which school to go to for design and advertising, OCAD was on the list for design, not advertising, dont know how good they are now?. From what i hear, all CDN schools suck for advertising. Look at LA or Miami Ad school.

mrs.snuggles went there, so did a bunch of my workmates. it's ok, but you'd be better off going to York if yer gonna spend the cash, and if you wan a cheaper option do it like me and doggy and go to George Brown or as I like to call it the James Brown School of drugs and design...

ya- you got it right snuggles!
GBC was cool ... I wish i did more research and cared about a school a little more. Or not. No idea what its like now? Probably a little more stinky, and a broader array of drugs. Sometimes i wish that i ran off to Miami and went into like $50,000 dept... Then again, im just happy i made it out of school and am having fun making pretty pictures now and getting cash for them..!
Not really about school in the long run - just as long as you mater your style and sell yourself like you work on Church and Jarvis!

or you can go to the Bruce Mau's design without borders. I heard he's the best in the world!

but beware, he may eat you, or try to borrow money off you...

i heard if you wear black turtle neck, you'll automatically get an A+, then he eats you.

Come on - is he really that bad?
I know a couple who worked for him and they're both asses.

Sean you should really go, I hear it's awesome. I wish I had the talent to get into that program, I've tried for many years and have been rejected many times.

piperboytoy, really?
- uhohseangettio0

- uhohseangettio0

i go to ocad, in graphic design.
its good, but like any school it all comes down to what you make of it. some dope teachers but also some shitty ones. there is a great community based site for the students there, its call myocad, you can check it out here (although the DB is having an issue right now):p.s. - if advertising is what you want to study, ocad definitely has teh best advertising program in canada, hands down.
