Students and teachers in Sheridan College’s Animation Program have experienced the benefit and impact of using Wacom Cintiq displays for their creative development.
“It’s very intuitive, it’s just like drawing on paper…back in the day, you would draw and draw on paper and then shoot it, and wouldn’t even know if it worked. Now you can do a finished scene in an hour. The closer you can get digital to feel like traditional, the better the work.”
