Continuing Education - 3DS Max Classes in NYC?

Hi,

I would like to learn 3DS Max and my boss is willing to pay for classes. Any have suggestions on where I can learn 3DS Max in the NYC area?

Thanks,

Steve

PRATT Continuing Education in Manhattan
New York School of Interior Design - continuing education

From my experience with NYSID - it offers more comprehensive classes (lighting is not separated into a different course from modeling), but also more expensive. I haven't taken 3D Max in NYSID, but in terms of Rhino and AutoCAD 3D is was VERY GOOD!

PRATT - 3D Max is somewhat divided into different courses, but the instructor I had was good (not VERY GOOD) and accessible.

I would not go with 3 day programs from any "software tutoring schools", as 3D max is very different (logic-wise) than AutoCAD and RHino, so you will need time to absorb and practice, practice, practice... something that you will never be able to do between class of 3 day programs.

Good luck!

P.S. ... all of the above is just a subjective opinion of the author...

sorry to piggyback on your thread doza....but I wonder about what people have found online for 3DS Max--specifically, anything architecture related (I've already seen the basic Lynda.com series). After sketchup and rhino, I'm having a tough time figuring out a few basic commands in Max that I'm accustomed to...
