If you are considering TAD, this is important to read. It will answer many questions both parents and students have about what TAD provides, and how success is set up for those who attend.
Each of the students here have their own unique vision for their careers. In this letter below, I hope to share with you what make's The Art Department stand alone and how we can help those who dare to dream, no matter where they live, work, or create.
TAD’s curriculum directs students through big picture information and hands on experience they need to do far more than just get a job at a major entertainment corporation or work for an art director. Many dream of working for incredible companies like ILM, Pixar, Blizzard, Marvel, or Hasbro. Others wish for gallery success through personal work, or getting printed on the cover of Time Magazine, and some wish to do any such things from the home towns they grew up in. Every single one of these is possible through TAD, but where we are different , we shine. TAD is setting up creators and entrepreneurs as well as those geared to inspiring life within production companies. TAD gives students knowledge of art, negotiation, business and legal. As students go through the program they are provided with every key legal document, and the knowledge of what each means, which they need to build their careers, saving them from the pitfalls of the professional world, and arming them for success as entrepreneurs, artists, art directors, directors, or independently successful creative people.
TAD sets up it’s students with many of the best in the field, as they are ready and as they learn. I am proud to announce that this year TAD career mentor students under Richmond POD Director Sterling Hundley, were printed in Rolling Stone and created illustrations for the US Postal Service. Companies like Sony. In Austin's POD, THQ, EA, id software and 40 others had professionals visiting and seeing freshman student work, two years before they complete the five semester program. TAD Online and POD student work was shared in front of pros from over 200 companies like Weta Digital, Dreamworks, Hasbro, Bioware, Sidhe, Zynga, and other renown firms in presentations at top international conferences. These events include AnimFX, New Zealand, SXSW, Kre8tif Malaysia, XMedia Lab, IGDA Microtalks, DragonCon and more. TAD students will be showcased at other events like the San Diego Comicon, SXSW Interactive, the International Art and Design Symposiums, and more. Over time, TAD student work is exposed to millions and professionals from thousands of companies who visit our partner industry portal ConceptArt.Org, where TAD is able to directly and exclusively reach them all.
With all the exposure, students must be ready for the focus of an inspiring professional life. TAD teaches the necessary skills, helps grow students minds to work as a team, and prepares them to be able to make it on their own, in groups, or as part of larger enterprises known around the world. TAD students interact with professionals from the semester they begin. They learn the truth of the business of art and are given the opportunity to personally direct their portfolios down the path they most wish to live. TAD can do this because it’s teachers have done it. Whether it be building famous international studios creating intellectual property for film, games, toys, comics or illustration, being globally printed on globally renown publications, becoming a recognized, award-winning, industry name, or museum and gallery collected Fine Artist, TAD faculty have done it all.
TAD,s Advisory Board includes members who lead the field of business, entertainment law, intellectual property development, global print publishing, video game publishing, game development, film, Fine Art, global marketing and more. TAD surrounds it’s students with the best and the brightest. When something needs to be taught, whether it be a media like Photoshop, Zbrush, graphite or oil paint, the very best in those areas cover that module of the program. The same extends to areas of business, legal, galleries, history, and anything else taught. For example, students who learn Painter get the information straight from artists like Andrew Jones, who has used that software to create universes for Nintendo or digital performances in front of 40,000 people. History of Illustration is taught by Terry Brown, who was Director the prestigious Society of Illustrators for more than two decades and holds an illustration image library beyond inspiration. 3D modeling is taught by Brett Briley, who has had success as an illustrator, can draw and paint, and has been Senior Character artist for RAGE one of the most anticipated video games from the one and only id software.
We don’t forget the traditional media at TAD, and if a student needs to learn pastels they get it from the likes of Mark English or Gary Kelley, who both have more Society of Illustrator awards in illustration than the great master Norman Rockwell. When TAD faculty need industry business knowledge they get it from professionals like David Glenn, the creative director of Café World, Jason Manley (myself and TAD President), and founder of Massive Black and ConceptArt.Org, John English founder of the Visual Literacy Program / Illustration Academy. TAD is the only art and entertainment program that provides this comprehensive creative media, digital, imaginative, industry, business, entrepreneurial, marketing, and promotion curriculum. What TAD does, cannot be found in any other art and entertainment school anywhere. TAD is a choice, students can make to succeed and parents can rest knowing their talented children are getting the best possible education.
As TAD students move from foundations to entertainment development, they learn to create intellectual property for global markets using the same processes that are best practices in the industry right now. They learn to take art direction, they learn to develop their personal point of view, which makes them unique and marketable, and they learn to think to solve problems. Research in knowledge, exposure to culture, literature, and personal life experience, help students refine their vision and style. TAD is not just creating wrists. TAD students have the individual tools to succeed but do not leave here as only a “screwdriver or hammer” for the industry or ability to create for their regional markets. Entertainment students leave here with the capability to work in a full spectrum of fields and even to build their own studios in any city they choose to do so. TAD faculty does it, and so will our students as they are ready and choose to do so.
Never before in history has it been so easy for creative people to work in small teams, on short duration, low investment products and create entertainment worlds they own, can license, or see independent artistic achievement. Success may be through social games, web apps, web comics, viral video, downloadable games, browser entertainment, children’s books, comics, urban vinyl toys, film, or other low cost productions. Such things can be done for existing companies, but if that product can be created independently it is the long term investment that students need to succeed in the case of tragic lay-offs or veteran melancholy from a decade’s grind in the industry.
TAD Fine Art and Illustration students get the same level of professional and artistic support. TAD POD students have already held gallery shows, street portraiture events, participated in fashion shows, industry conferences, staged live painting, and seen their work printed internationally. Top professionals from these fields are on hand to cover it all, and help each student individually, whether they are online or on site learning at their convenience.
TAD shows students how to use their problem solving skills to succeed in life and as a person. Social responsibility is encouraged and performed during the course of this program. Exciting creative exploration happens in cities around the world as part of the ConceptArt.Org workshops, the 3 week TAD semester incubator, online and within the PODs. With a great portfolio, international exposure, direct connections, problem solving skills, marketing, promotional, and business knowledge in hand, TAD students are prepared for opportunity. With the unprecedented industry reach of TAD’s faculty and ConceptArt.Org, opportunity for TAD students is provided from the moment a TAD student is ready to complete the work great careers require. TAD’s faculty list below speaks far louder than any of my words, take a look at TAD and see for yourself.
I believe in TAD, I believe in our faculty's ability to teach and have witnessed success as some were even my own teachers years ago. TAD is an alternative to the schools available that provides professional education and truly up to date knowledge and experience. As I witness this program first hand, I believe in our student body and the limitless talent within it. TAD offers the reality of the world of art. It is up to the incredible students to see their dreams within it or create their very own.
I look forward to the coming semester,
