quitting job to study animation full-time by my own?
hii guys, I have some crazy questions
I'm 21yo and recently quit my old job because I was working during the night and some other problems. Not working in anything art-related was one of them. Since I was a kid I dream about working with art.
The thing is, now that I'm not working anymore, and still living with my parents, I have enough money to help them while I can study animation by myself.
I want to know if it's possible to learn 3D animation totally using free tutorials and content we have available freely today on YouTube/other websites. I live in Brazil so we don't have many animation schools here (we have a few, but they're veery expensive). And how many time I would be able to get my first job that way, studying for like ,~4 hours a day.
I know it's a very risky plan, but at this point I think it's better to try and fail than never taking the shot to try my dream job.
Has anyone here ever experienced something similar?
