So, let&#39;s say if one has a huge load of commitments and unable to afford tertiary education; can&#39;t pass for education loan or can&#39;t even score scholarship..<br />Will it be alright to self-taught from sites like Youtube, Skillshare or Udemy; then slowly create your portfolio overtime?<br /><br />In creative industries, is it really important to earn atleast a diploma to score a job?<br />If self taught, what are the chances of getting a job in a big company? Let&#39;s say a comic artist trying to score in Marvel? Or for a local example, an animator in Animonsta studio?<br /><br />If wanted to be self taught, is learning your skills from the internet would be sufficient? Is there any tips to self-learning?<br /><br />What are your views on this? Pros and cons? TheFool Arts &amp; Designs Mon, 26 Nov 2018 00:18:07 +0800
