My experience with CGAcademy is great. This was my first public lecture, and the team that organized the event was there to provide full support and make sure everything went smoothly.

Dear Crater Training Center, thank you for the exceptionally organized course of Digital Photography and for choosing Dragan Kujundžić as the lecturer. This programme was conceived so efficiently that we got all the necessary knowledge on photography in just a few weeks, from theory to practical advice and skills we need for further specialization and independent work.
As a beginner in amateur photography, for me this course was useful in so many ways because it cleared out all my doubts and false convictions I previously had. I learned the basics and the essence of photography, which has influenced my approach to photography in such a positive way. I would like to thank Dragan Kujundžić and Crater Training Center once again for organizing this course.

Filmmaking/Videography course has helped me put my theoretical knowledge into practice. I really like that our lecturer Boris Đurić insisted on practical work, beside theory. We were filming, learning editing basics in Adobe Premiere, working with a drone etc. The classes are definitely customized according to our individual needs and experiences, so I really learned everything that I was interested in the most. I would especially like to emphasize all the practical tips we got from Boris and his work experience, such as negotiating the deals with clients and other possibilities for applying our knowledge in everyday work.

I have the best possible impressions of the course. Everything exceeded my expectations - the lecturer, programme, lessons and my gained knowledge and skills. I started the course as a complete beginner and right after the course I was using Illustrator almost daily for my work, even though that was not what I intended in the first place. Our lecturer Stefan was absolutely phenomenal, very talented in his work but also with a gift for teaching. My warmest recommendations, definitely!

Exceeded my expectations in so many ways! The classroom and equipment are excellent (I’m 98% sure Crater Training Center has the best learning conditions in Belgrade). The lecturer has an outstanding knowledge of the software, which is more than enough.

In short, the guys at school were awesome and the lecturer quite amazing! All of our lessons were interesting and interactive.

The course was great!! Even though I had previous experience with 3DS Max, lecturer’s experience and patience was impressive. This is the place where you can really learn how to use 3DS Max. Crater School is fantastic. Cozy, I felt right at home! :)

I learned a lot in an unorthodox way. None of the classes looked like an ordinary class. Saša was sharing his knowledge generously and he taught us right away how to apply everything we learned in Photoshop. He was very patient with us, constantly giving us feedback and pushing us forward. I was very impressed with the atmosphere.
All in all, it was a memorable experience when it comes to what I learned and whom I met. I would like to continue my learning path with the other courses available at the School.

Crater Training Center is a great starting point for everyone who wants to take a leap into the world of 3D modeling. This course was well adjusted to everyone, no matter their background and profession - whether they are designers, architects or just beginners. The work was intensive and it really helped me get to that satisfying level of knowledge so that I can start my own career as a designer. The lecturer was amazing and he really shared his knowledge and experience with us in a clear and practical way. I’m happy I decided to choose Crater Training Center and I would recommend it to everyone on their learning path.

This course exceeded all of my expectations! The study groups are small and the lecturer was fantastic in grabbing our attention. Everything was very interesting and you get to learn so much. Everyone was really nice and put in so much effort in explaining the details to us and sharing knowledge. I would recommend Crater School to everyone.

I decided to take this course because I wanted to improve my skills in architectural visualization and visual communication. It really paid off in terms of quality and work optimization I got from it. The lecturer went the extra mile in teaching us even the stuff that wasn’t part of the curriculum, but it was also interesting and useful. Great company, generous lecturer and awesome results!

The course was substantial, very well conceived. The classes were amazing and contained enough theoretical background that helps you understand this subject fully. Our lecturers were Bogdan and Zoran, and they really made an effort to share everything with us. I’d like to point out that the lecturers are the biggest advantage of this course. They were just so engaged in our learning process by helping us even outside the classroom with everything we needed to master the basics of compositing. What I appreciate the most is when I see that the lecturers care so much about students and their learning journey. That was also motivating me to learn everything I could thanks to their exceptional experience gained through working in this software. I would recommend this course to anyone who enjoys films and TV shows, especially if they want to go into post-production and VFX magic.

I've always considered myself open minded right until I attended VFX Essentials course. The amazing lecturers I met really burst my “designer bubble” and helped me not only to learn essentials of 3D workflow but also change my approach to solving problems and observing the same thing from various angles. I’m grateful to Crater for this experience and all the knowledge I got. I would recommend this course to every creative soul out there.

I would like to thank everyone at Crater for giving me this unique opportunity. I have always wanted to enter the animation world (especially 3D), but I also thought that would never be possible locally, at least not at such a highly professional level. Nevertheless, I decided to sign up for the Character Animation course. I didn’t have high expectations especially because we were the first generation of students for this particular course. I was wrong! I am so pleased with the results, especially because my animation skills improved so much and the course really opened up possibilities for further specialization. Our lecturers Snežana Ćubrilović and Sofija Leškov were beyond amazing, as well as Aleksa Gajić and his lecture on traditional animation. They all were very patient and clear while answering every question I had. That helped me so much to get my work on a higher level.

I’m really content with the course and what I learned in Maya. I improved my skills so much. The lecturers were amazing and very devoted to the work. This course will help everyone who wants to start doing 3D modelling and make first steps towards the VFX industry.

I just want to thank everyone at Crater School for the amazing time and acquired knowledge. Our lecturer Marina Vasić was beyond amazing and I’m grateful for her patience in helping us with such a complex area of studies. Occasional theory tests were a great idea because that really helped us get the insight into our strong and weak points.

The course was wonderful and the lecturer phenomenal. It requires maximum and constant effort, but the results are amazing. A whole new magical world!

I was blown away with the Environment Design and Matte Painting course. I started dreaming of the trees and our whole class, together with the lecturer Dejan Vukadinović, as we walked through the environment. This course was very interesting and useful in every way. I come with a lot of visual communication background as I have 11 years of education in visual arts. But this course has opened a completely new world of 2D art. Apart from providing me with the basic knowledge for getting started in environment design, it really opened a whole new field of opportunities for me to connect my art with digital arts. I think this is just something that was bound to happen sooner or later - connecting traditional knowledge with contemporary digital techniques.

I have always been interested in studying light, but no art school or college in Serbia offers serious education in digital lighting. The only way for me to enter this work field was through Crater School’s course Digital Lighting. The fantastic team of lecturers Ivan Vasiljević and Ognjen Vuković will guide you through the processes of using all types of real-life lighting, shaders for defining materials and getting the project ready for rendering. Everything else after the technical stuff you learn is up to you and your own gut.

As a huge fan of Star Trek at the age of 7, I always wondered how Data and Pikar just disappeared in thin air and I found out that it was a movie effect. I can say that my childhood dream came true - I solved the mystery of Data’s disappearance. All thanks to Crater Studio and Crater Training Center.
When I found out that they offer special effects courses, I started saving money for it. It was an excellent experience. I got the opportunity to see how one of the best VFX studios in our region works. This really helped me with the other areas of my work, such as illustrations, and it widened my horizons and knowledge of post-production. I learned a lot of things I was interested in. Our lecturer Bogdan was extraordinary and he would always answer all my questions very patiently, keeping in mind that as a user of After Effects it wasn’t easy for me to shift to node based software such as Nuke so easily.
I have only words of praise for Crater VFX Training Center.
