We are funded to build a new center of Allan Hancock College. I teach, among other things, traditional animation. Ive been trying to figure out a way to start a computer animation class but our equipment funds have been non existant for years. With the new center I may have access to a room full of computers. I need to justify, with more than anecdotal evidence, my proposal to teach 3ds. Lots of my collegues in graphics are Mac folks (not religous fanatics but dedicated nonetheless). The fact that I can cite the Roncarelli report on computer animation that 3ds makes up 48%of the 3d animation market and 75% of that market on the PC enables me to push for 3ds compatable hardware. I dont have the report, Im quoting from the July Video Systems. I also need data on the GROWTH IN DEMAND for employees skilled in 3d animation. If anyone can suggest sources on this and where to find them it would be a great help to me and my students. Although evidence of this growth is demonstrated in the job offers on this forum I need harder statistical data. Thanks, Ed
