It is extremely encouraging to see the way that Go academy is working with the industry in order to identify the employment opportunities of its students. Careful considerations has been given to the structure and academic balance of the program at Go academy – integrating high level technical training with creative thinking and content development.

The tools of the trade only serve to enhance the skills of a Visual Effects person. Like the double edged Excalibur, Go academy is armed with both professional expertise and the facilities to boot. The outlook and feel of this institute serves only to remind me of a top-notch post production house.
Both its Analog and Digital training rooms promise its students a future in Visual Effects field, a sure guarantee that its students will not be lost in an actual production environment

There are 2 types of animators - "technical" and "creative" animators in my view. For the advertising and creative industries, there must be an equal balance of both. We can't have one that is technically inclined but is not creative. Neither can we have a very creative animator but lacking in software skills and technical know-how.
That's where Go academy comes in. With a very qualified panel of instructors and lecturers, many from within the 3D advertising and creative industry, the experience that they can bring to the students is one that combines real life advertising work experience (sleepless nights and endless revisions) and years of technical software/hardware know-how (shortcuts included). Vital knowledge for anyone who wants to enter into the industry to pursue a career in 3D Animation, Visual Effects and Design.

I
have waited long enough for such a setup that is not too academic oriented.
With a very good and experienced team from the Digital Content Creation
Industry, Go academy would be more than just a normal course provider.
I strongly believe that Go academy will become one of the Malaysia's
top Digital Graphics Academies.
