At first, Maya felt completely unfamiliar to me, and to be honest, I wasn’t very confident using it.
My goal was simple — even if I couldn’t master it right away, I wanted to at least believe, “If I keep trying, I’ll get there.”
Thanks to the instructor’s patient and detailed guidance, I ended up learning far more than I expected.
I’ll keep practicing and applying what I’ve learned to build a portfolio I’m proud of and land a job. Thank you!
You’ve worked so hard — coming to class after a long day of work is no easy task!
It was inspiring to see your determination to show up and give your best, even when it wasn’t easy.
If you keep putting in this level of effort, I truly believe good results will always follow.
Let’s push through the rest of the course together and finish strong with an amazing portfolio. You’ve got this!

When I first joined the class, even pressing Q, W, E, R keys felt awkward, and I was honestly worried because everything seemed so difficult.
But thanks to the instructor’s clear explanations and willingness to answer every question, I was gradually able to adapt to Maya.
The structured curriculum made the learning process so much easier and more enjoyable.
Thank you for the great guidance!
You were quiet during class, so I was a little worried at first —
but I really appreciate how well you kept up and followed along.
Let’s keep pushing through the rest of the course and create an amazing final video together!
In CG, those who stay in their seats the longest are the ones who win — so stay strong and keep going until the end!
Shin Seungyeon
While learning Maya, I realized that modeling everyday objects was much more challenging than I had imagined. However, the process of experimenting and gradually shaping each form was incredibly fun and rewarding.
As I continued studying, I began to see things differently — thinking, “This object could start from a cylinder,” and approaching modeling more creatively.
Although I’m still learning, my goal is to keep improving until I can create a portfolio that truly makes people say “Wow!” and see my name credited as a creator one day.
Until that day comes — let’s keep pushing forward! And special thanks to my instructor for their patience and amazing guidance.
There are still many challenging parts, but remember — finishing the Maya course is just the beginning.
Keep reviewing what you’ve learned so it stays with you, and push through until the end.
Let’s finish strong, create an amazing final reel, and make that dream job happen!

When I decided to pursue a career in CG, I immediately joined SF Film School — and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
At SFFS, students can experience nearly every aspect of CG — from modeling and rendering to animation — which makes it the perfect place for those still exploring which path to take.
Even when theory-heavy lessons could have felt dull, the instructors’ engaging teaching style and energy made every class enjoyable.
They were always ready to answer questions clearly and patiently, and that’s when I realized I was truly learning from professionals.
With such high-quality instruction, it’s easy to see why so many students from this school go on to successful careers.
I’ll keep giving my best to complete a portfolio that both my instructors and I can be proud of. Thank you!
Joining SF Film School was truly a great decision!

I started this journey with only a simple interest in 3D, and now I’ve finally reached the end of the course.
At first, I was afraid — I wasn’t sure if I could do well. But thanks to my instructor’s patient and detailed explanations, I was able to make steady progress.
Even when I was too shy to ask questions, my instructor kindly reached out first and helped me overcome the parts I struggled with — something I’m truly grateful for.
It may have been a short period for some, but for me, it was a meaningful time of growth and challenge.
Thank you so much to all the SF Film School instructors who guided me along the way.

I really appreciated that SF Film School offers not only classes, but also professional seminars and masterclasses led by active industry experts.
When I first started learning Maya, I was worried it might be difficult, but it turned out to be easier to understand than expected, and my skills improved quickly.
Since this was my first time in the field, I wasn’t sure what I was good at or interested in, but through assignments and discussions with my instructor, I discovered my own strengths and direction.
This experience has been incredibly valuable, and I’ll continue to build on it as I move forward. Thank you so much!
Jusung, you did a fantastic job! You were always passionate and dedicated in every class.

Lee Ju-seong
When I first started learning Maya, even the basic controls felt unfamiliar, and the overwhelming number of functions left me completely lost.
But as I followed the course step by step, I gradually learned not only how to model, UV unwrap, light, and rig — but also the theoretical foundations behind each process.
Now, I feel confident enough to model most everyday objects around me.
It was an incredibly valuable and insightful class. Thank you!
Changsoo, great job!
I’ll always remember how committed, focused, and hardworking you were throughout the entire class — your consistency really stood out.
This is just the beginning of your journey, and there are still many programs and creative processes ahead to explore and master.
But if you keep showing the same passion, effort, and dedication, I have no doubt that you’ll succeed at anything you set your mind to.
Don’t give up, stay strong, and let’s keep pushing forward together until the very end. You’ve got this, and I’m cheering for you all the way!

I started with no knowledge of 3D, so I was really worried at first.
But through the classes, I was able to learn so much!
Thanks to the instructor’s thorough teaching and thoughtful answers to all my questions, I was able to let go of many of those initial worries.
I still have a lot to learn, but I’ll keep doing my best at SF Film School and work hard to become a great 3D animator. Thank you for your continued guidance!
Maya is not an easy program to learn, especially in the beginning —
so I know this journey must have been really challenging at times.
But the fact that you made it all the way to the final class shows just how much effort and perseverance you’ve put in, and that’s something to be proud of.
With this solid foundation, I’m confident that the next stages of learning will feel much more manageable and even enjoyable.
Still, always keep in mind — this is just the beginning of your path as a creator.
Stay focused, keep pushing forward, and let’s work together to build an amazing portfolio that truly reflects your growth and passion.
You’ve already come so far, and I believe you’re more than capable of achieving great things. Keep it up!

I’ve always been interested in 3D computer graphics, but the complexity of the programs made it difficult to approach.
Through the structured lessons at SF Film School, I was able to learn step by step and gain confidence in my skills.
I’ll continue to review what I’ve learned and keep improving to grow as a better artist in the future!
Ha-eun, great work!
Learning something new is never easy, but you followed the curriculum diligently and found the fun in it.
You did especially well during the motion capture session!
All of these moments will become valuable memories — and when you start your career, I hope you’ll look back on this time proudly and keep that same passion. Well done!
Song Ha-eun
I’ve loved movies since I was young, which led me to major in film. While shooting films, I was fascinated by how CG could create scenes that are impossible to capture in real life.
When I discovered SF Film School and saw the incredible student portfolios, I knew this was the right place to learn properly.
At first, I struggled to keep up with the unfamiliar tools, but my instructor always guided me step by step and encouraged me through constant review sessions.
Their patience and clear explanations helped me truly understand the process, and I became much more comfortable with the software.
Now that I’ve completed the regular course, I’m eager to continue learning and create my own unique portfolio as I take the next step toward becoming a professional CG artist.
I’m deeply grateful to all the SF Film School instructors who supported me throughout this journey.
The beginning is always the hardest — just like taking your first steps.
Watching you grow and improve through each class and assignment made me so proud!
Keep exploring new knowledge and finish your next project strong.
Let’s get that amazing portfolio done and land your dream job. Great work, Na-young!

When I first started learning Maya, I was worried — “Can I really do this?” and “Will I be able to keep up with the class?”
But from the very first lesson, my instructor explained everything clearly and patiently, taking time to make sure I understood each step.
The fun and friendly atmosphere in class made learning enjoyable and never dull.
I also had the chance to discuss my career plans, and the instructor gave me realistic and thoughtful advice that helped me find my direction.
Every moment at SF Film School has been a meaningful learning experience. Thank you so much!
