    Ep. 20 - OAKFIELDS COLLEGE: Animation Portfolios, Lectures & Laughter

    I'm going back to university! I kid, I kid, but I did spend a full day with third year animation students at Oakfields College in Pretoria, South Africa. I'm really excited for you to meet the students, see their work, spend time in their classes and introduce Oakfields College to those who haven't heard about it! Seeing the experience of studying animation from the student's perspective is very powerful - maybe even more powerful than traditional advertising. That's why I'm spending a day with animation students and unveiling the mystery around their chosen university course. If you're not sure where to study animation I've got you covered on the podcast with Cabblow's University Guide!
