Oerwinde Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 First: This is the Obsidian forums, not the Epic forums. Second, from who I've talked to, formal training isn't all that important as long as you can do the work, and do it under pressure. So theres nothing wrong with being self taught, as long as you can do the work, in a reasonable amount of time, under pressure.

Oerwinde Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 ... in a reasonable amount of time, under pressure. So, you must be "tormentable"? The school I went to tried to prepare us for the industry by setting up the workload similar to what the instructors had to handle while they were a part of the industry. So most of us in the class spent around 12+ hours a day at the school, then when it hit crunch time for our final projects some of us didn't leave the school for 3 days and such. In the last couple days before the deadline for our final projects I had been up for 42 hours without sleep working. With meal breaks. Though I assume it wouldn't get that bad while in the actual industry. Especially since you aren't very efficient while hallucinating from lack of sleep.
