So I've decided to throw in the towel on the glamour and big bucks of being a network administrator and pursue visual effects.
Thing is that it's been so long that I'm not quite sure where to start so if anyone in the field now (i.e. uses Maya, Mudbox, 3DStudioMax and/or has mad skills with curves and matrix algebra) can give me some pointers on where to start I'd appreciate it. Things like forums, suggestions for classes, books, etc. are all what I'm looking for.
Thanks,
BP
P.S. I have a BS in Computer Science and took a couple classes on OpenGL and graphics programming in college.
