  The Visual Effects curriculum at Lost Boys trained me in several areas of the Visual Effects industry, such as 3D modeling, texturing and photorealistic rendering, compositing, matte painting, keying, rotoscoping etc.
  The curriculum at Lost Boys is project based, meaning that we had a bit of theory, but most of my training was about working on the projects and solving the problems that were appearing along.
