I'm a little sad today y'all. The professor I have for many of my 3D VFX classes really disagrees with me and today I got to a point where I realize it's more him than me. Like I know I have improvements to make in both my 3D modeling and how I am as a person, but he's someone I can't vibe with at all. He goes too fast, like if you take your eyes off what he's doing for a second you'd be too much, it's hard to ask him questions and he jumps to other things you're not asking and goes to the beginning of what he was teaching even when you clearly asked him about a step you were lost on, he rambles on and makes a bunch of pop culture reference jokes like he's Peter Griffin, commonly talks about "Once you get a job in the real world, I'll need this advice" and just It makes me nervous. Plus, with grades it's all or nothing. Like the class average for an assignment was a 90 and I got a 50. This was partly because I forgot a cheat sheet, but it seemed like it was mostly because my sword and shield had poorly drawn concept art. On the other assignment I got a 70 because it didn't really look like a bottle and the class average was 95. Right now I have a 70 and this is not a good grade for the class, especially since they are the cornerstones of the major. I want to read carefully. I know the race isn't really about grades, but it's still hard to deal with. He also seems like the only professor of a course I really want to take. So yeah, I'm not in a very good mood today.
