National Academy of Arts - Digital Arts
The best studying program is Digital Arts. The professors are amazing and the variety of subjects is unique. It is time-consuming to study so many different skills all at once but it is definitely worth it. The only con in my opinion is the very old state of the building but I was informed it is going to be completely rebuild.
National Academy of Arts
A great place to learn new skills in a classical way
National Academy of Art
