Max the Mutt Animation School Blog
This is the place to stay on top of what we are doing at Max The Mutt Animation School
The new academic year is almost here. Max the Mutt has gradually grown from an informal studio into a school with international standing. As an artist founded facility, we’ve had to keep changing our administrative methods and procedures to keep up with the growth, and we’ve gone through growing pains. We’ve spent these last months reorganizing to be more efificient and reduce costs, which will help us to control tuition.
We’ve also spent time thinking about education and how to help students maximize their time at Max the Mutt. It’s been an exhausting but meaningful time for us, as we clean and clear, work on a new web site, and add an online student centre!
We ‘ll have surprises for Noelle when she returns. She sends her best to to all of you. She always sounds upbeat and she’s a fighter. We all miss her very much and hope that she’ll be back with us sometime during second semester.
Last but not least, one of my heroes is Stephen Hawking. This is the advice that Stephen Hawking gave his children:
“One, remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Two, never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it. Three, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don’t throw it away.”
That’s good advice for all of us to take to heart, don’t you think?
Enjoy the rest of the summer!
