This blows my mind. I would have sold my legs for an opportunity like this in Highschool ! This would have been a dream come true. Lucky bastards !

I'm guessing this school is located around California ?

Nope. We are located in Berea, Ohio - just a few minutes outside of Cleveland. Thanks for looking.

They are doing truly gorgeous work. However, what with CGI taking over everything, I question whether this is a viable career option for people just starting out. Even the experienced pros have seen a dramatic drop in their work orders. Just ask someone like Rick Gamez.

I would agree with the above comment if we were a specialty/trade school, but this is a course in our art department's curriculum. Students in this public high school can choose from: photography, painting/drawing, ceramics, graphic design, or visual effects and design. Students are in the class for 2 hrs everyday, for 36 weeks. They may also repeat the course (gets harder) during their time at the high school. Most if not all of these kids go on to art school when they graduate.

Again, this is simply a high school art course offering - the subject matter just happens to be about creating monsters, characters, props, costumes and movies.

Thanks for looking,

I'm envious. Although I went to the only Design and architecture High School in the nation, at the time, I still feel envious. :thumbsup
