    A Whole New Website in a Whole New World

    It has been 2 full years since we started Stop Motion University and so much has already changed in the world around us. For one thing the Pandemic has brought a major shift in the animation and visual effects industry. There are more jobs in animation than ever before and most of those jobs are now done at home. Oddly enough many schools and universities have shifted from in class teaching to online teaching. This in itself is wonderful due to the fact that online education can give working adults the freedom to maintain both their educational needs while giving them the flexibility to keep their jobs while they attend school. Funny thing however is that the costs of that education has gone up in many cases instead of going down. We were recently shocked to find out that a school which teaches the very basics of stop motion puppet movement is charging close to $4000 usd for a class that we teach for $100! And what is really crazy is that we have far more content in our lessons…

    This now begs the question as to how do we compete with schools charging more than us. Well, for starters we are focused on the students and not the money. We want our students to have access to a lot of content. We also want to attract more and more students and not set limits to our class sizes. Since we offer both live online and learn at your own pace course, it allows us to give a lot and not charge an arm an a leg. Also, out philosophy of students first in everything we do drives us to want more for our students. This combined with cost should keep our school a float and evolving to an ever growing course offering and improved educational experience. To achieve this we need to change things up from time to time and so we have a whole new online website and educational system.

    This new system allows us a better way of addressing our students needs through easy access to courses, better tracking of progress, and a more friendly user experience. We are now also able to schedule weekly workshops with industry artists and more emersion in the animation experience for all our students. In the coming days we hope to be adding instructors to our rooster of teachers along with bring our students new courses and an ever expanding curriculum. We hope you are as excited as we are.
