I had Steve Gilliand for Animation Production -- he was VERY helpful and willing to work with his students, but not an easy A, you had to work for it!

Steve is a pretty cool guy, he can be kind of insane at times but hes just trying to keep the class as intresting as he can. hes kind of corny and loves to joke and scream but honestly, if i had it with another teacher, i would probably sleep the whole time. His test are pretty hard if you dont go do the study guide on the internet. pay attention t

Comment:

He will bend over backwards to help you if you take the time to talk to him. He is very aware that most students are not Comm majors and is required to take the class. He makes the class as interesting as possible. Take advantage of all extra credits. The movies can be boring but hey you can't beat that, sitting in class watching film. He's great.

Professor Steve is not only an outstanding teacher, but a great all-around guy. Even if you "cain't" draw, you'll still learn a lot from him. You'll explore all the different animation techniques, and there are going to be ones you like and dislike, but you really do come out of the class with a great sense of accomplishment.

Comment:

An excited professor with little field experience. Maintains good relationships with his students and really tries to help with your understanding of his classes. Can be grouchy at times and can snap at you for no reason. Has time management issues.
