Welcome to The Animation Society! :D
Animation is a wonderful but challenging career, with many hardworking students wanting to achieve their hopes & dreams. It is an industry with so much diversity, but most of us feel a bit too introverted to talk to each other!
As the courses can get quite stressful, it would be great to have more designated days where we can lay back, have fun, and meet more like-minded folks from the different courses, years, and anyone else who loves Animation!
