their year long experience at Lost Boys Learning | School of Visual Effects.

"It was a pleasure and an honour to have shared the studio with such a creative and skilled set of individuals. The level of support and camaraderie that I witnessed amongst the students was unprecedented. They banded together, inspiring and pushing each other to higher levels. We are very proud of their achievements and welcome them to the Lost Boys Alumni. It's no surprise to me that Class 8 have enjoyed a 100% placement rate within the Visual Effects Industry." - Mark Bénard | Founder & VFX Director
