FINAL FANTASY FORUMS GRAPHICS SCHOOL

Welcome to The Final Fantasy Graphics School, here to help both beginners and experienced gfxer's alike. Become a student and learn from one of our teachers or become a tutor and help those with less experience to enter the wonderful world of gfxing. There are a few simple rules and guidelines that you need to follow in order to be a successful member of the school. You can find these below:

Rules and Guidelines

1] Respect your fellow members

2] You must adher to the Forums general rules which can be found >here<

3] As a Student, you can only learn from one tutor every month.

4] As a Tutor, you are expected to answer any questions from your student/s.

5] During the last week of every month, every tutor must give their student/s a challenge, involving any techniques they may have helped their students on over the previous three weeks. This is so we can see how each student has improved over the month.


Becoming a Student

Becoming a student at the school is simple. All you need to do is PM Lindsey Buckingham with an example of your latest pieces (Three or more is preferable but you can only send one or two). These pieces will be the starting point of your School experience. They will be used as comparison between your beginning and the end of your first month challenge. Your name will then be added to the Student list.

Becoming a Tutor

Becoming a Tutor is a little more tricky. You need to send Lindsey Buckingham five examples of your work. Your work will then be looked over by myself and two other tutors. If we believe that you have enough ability to bestow help upon students, you will be accepted. If not, you have the choice of joining the Student list. If you are not accepted as a tutor, it is nothing personal. It may just be that you aren't quite at the level expected to help give technique advice etc, to students. You can always advance from student to tutor, so just keep it up!

Advancing from Student to Tutor

Every month you can apply to progress from a Student to a Tutor. Simply PM your best five pieces to Lindsey Buckingham by the end of the month. If you have improved enough and have a good grip on some techniques and the like, you may be accepted and moved from the Student List to the Tutor ranks. We'd like to see a Student advance to Tutor at least once every three months. It's not expected but we are all here to help and encourage! Maybe you can be one of them. =3


Studying Under a Tutor

Students and Tutors alike can request who they are going to take on for the month if they so wish.

Example, Tutor A decides they would like to help Student C. Student C does not request another Tutor by the deadline so Tutor A becomes their teacher. During the last week of the month, Student C and Tutor A will be asked if they wish to switch with others. If both say no, then they will be paired for the following month. If they decide to change, then the student and tutor will switch with others. This might sound a little confusing but you will understand once the school is underway! (I hope =P )


Questions
You can pose questions/advice to your tutor/student via the thread provided or by PM. It is entirely up to you. Also, feel free to talk about the school adn stuff in this thread.

Double post. But... <.>



You have until February 13th to apply for student/tutor for this month etc. =3

Looking forward to seeing who is interested. =]
 
Feel free to talk about the school and stuff here...

I'm going to pm you the 1 or 2 things I have attempted in the next week.

Then I will be applying as a student for your first month.

I will edit the post with who I want as a tutor after you've seen my... "work"
 
It won't be long before Tutors/Students are assigned to each other. Hopefully you'll get someone who can help you progress. =]

Just be patient. ^^
 
I'm really looking forward to this, and hopefully we dont get the usual tearcher-student relationship I always have. But this is FFF so i doubt it. I wonder if there are more students or tutors? probably more students. Anyways, this is a great idea, whoever thaught of this gets a HUGE thumbs up from me, no emote of the size :awesome: Looking forward to it :D
 
Thank god someone thought of this...i really need help.

One question though:
Do the Students pick the tutors or the other way around???
 
Either way.

Example, Tutor A decides they would like to help Student C. Student C does not request another Tutor by the deadline so Tutor A becomes their teacher. During the last week of the month, Student C and Tutor A will be asked if they wish to switch with others. If both say no, then they will be paired for the following month. If they decide to change, then the student and tutor will switch with others. This might sound a little confusing but you will understand once the school is underway! (I hope =P )

i think i get it,

the tutor can say if he wants to stay with the student for the rest of the month if he doesnt want he just switches with an other tutor,

this actually is an good idea becuz tutors also have different styles,

the students can learn diff styles this way,

really looking forward <3

Peace,
 
Oh, i get it...

looking forward to this =)
 
Yeah. So if a tutor doesn't pick a student, a student who doesn't have a tutor can easily pick them if they wish. It's a first come thing. If you select a tutor first, then you get them. :)

In most cases at least :wacky:
 
Will there also be a list of tutors and students that can be picked?
Becuz i dunno the experts in here x]

<3
 
Theres a list on the first post
 
I will be adding the other students to it soon. Anyone who applied for student has been accepted. I'm just too blearly eyed to edit the first post right now. XD
 
Tsurugi has been giving me tips....I'm not picky about tutors....but I do need some serious rendering help. Hm rendering specialist for tutor perhapse?
