Otherwise, here's a list of resources that helped me:

• Sheridan Ritual Sacrifice: a Q&A tumblr run by current animation students. You can ask them anything regarding the animation program!
• Facebook group: search up Sheridan Animation Hopefuls [your current year]; it's a nice community where you share advice and look at others' work. Animation students hang around too, so you get solid advice.

Tutors:

• The Animation Portfolio Workshop
• ACE Art Studio
• Portprep (you can book an interview on the website, but it seems glitchy, so just email them: portprep1@gmail.com)
• Actively contact first years and other animation students! They're all super kind and approachable people and will give great advice!

General portfolio advice:

• De Montfort University
• Amanda has a complete, albeit a little dated, site with solid advice on each section
• The Keyframes Podcast Episode 2 - Sheridan Portfolio Edition

Figure drawing resources

• Force: Dynamic Life Drawing for Animators, Mike Mattesi
• Figure Drawing by Micheal Hampton; there's a pdf.
• Okay this is Loomis's Figure Drawing for all it's Worth. It's a classic--though I never really looked through it 'cause it maked me bored haha--I'll read it eventually.\
• Again, this is the classic Bridgman.
• Proko's videos totally tops books for understanding anatomy though.
• Croquis Cafe
• CTN Sketchfever for costume drawing
• Posemaniacs; more for posing characters though
• Line of Action; they went by a few different names, so if the URL expired, just google them
• Quickposes is similar

From veterans in the field:

• Peter Emslie's blog, The Cartoon Cave
• Micheal Sporn Animation
• Robertryan Cory
• Christophe Lourdelet
• Griz and Normand Lemay has great tips; the update frequently too!
• I love the Bancroft Brothers Animation Podcast!
• And the Oatley Academy!

And other animation stuff:

• Flooby Nooby! Not sure who runs it, but it's my kind of animation nerd site.
• Thundercluck tutorials
• Ultimate Iron Giant pre-production archive
• Living Lines Library archive

Keep up with animation news and things!

• Cartoon Brew
• Caracter Design Quarterly- I just followed them on instagram
• Character Design References

What? You want books? Okay...for the old school peeps:

• I owe my passion for animation partly to The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation by Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnson. It's more Disney history than animation instruction, but it shows you how animation works and what it is. #animationhistoryisbesthistory
• The Animator's Survival Kit, Robert Williams
• Framed Ink: Drawing and Composition for Visual Storytellers, Marcos Mateu Mestre
• Prepare to Board! Creating Story and Characters for Animated Features and Shorts, Nancy Beiman
• Dream Worlds: Production Design for Animation, Hans Bacher
• The Silver Way: Techniques, Tips, and Tutorials for Effective Character Design, Stephen Silver
• Drawn to Life: 20 Golden Years of Disney Master Classes: Volume 1: The Walt Stanchfield Lectures, Walt Stanchfield
• The Noble Approach: Maurice Noble and the Zen of Animation Design, Tod Polson
• Vision: Color and Composition for Film, Hans Bacher and Sanatan Suryavanshi
• Honestly just search up anything animation-related from the library. Remember to learn perspective too!

• You can buy animation supplies from Lightfoot Ltd.

And MOST IMPORTANTLY---keep yourself entertained and motivated!

• Fourth-year's films archive
• From now on, you don't watch cartoons; you study them--KissCartoon :D
• Austin Faber's (from class of 2018) vlogs
• Dave's (Sheridan illustration alumni) videos got me through portfolio season honestly
• Here's a list of Sheridan Animation alumni. I don't know if the blog is still active, but there's plenty of people there you can look at for inspiration.
