There are no teachers and no forums for courses from The Vault, but what you are getting is access to four years of fxphd courses on a rotating basis, as many of The Vault offerings change with each term. With that you get immediate access to all ten weeks of classes and supporting course materials. Personally, I’ve taken two terms recently and put fxphd at the top of the online learning food chain.įounded in 2006 by visual effects artists John Montgomery and the Sydney-based Mike Seymour, has amassed quite a back catalog of courses so they recently opened up a resource called “The Vault.” This back catalog of courses isn’t available often and students in the current term can purchase courses from The Vault for an additional $100 each. Add to that the availability of many high-end software packages for the student’s use during the term as part of your course tuition (which starts at $330 for three courses) and it’s a unique learning experience.
While many courses are supplemented with media and project files, one of the strongest elements of fxphd is the online forums where instructors can interact with students and students can interact with each other. There’s also production-related courses in directing, lighting and the RED camera and RED worfkflow that are often offered. They offer courses on how to use tools like Final Cut Studio, Cinema 4D and After Effects, up to VFX tools like Nuke, Maya and Pixar’s RenderMan.
If you’re familiar with then you know it’s one of the best online VFX, production and post-production training resources out there.
