New Teaching Staff: Welcoming Hei Mao and (Masked) RQ!

Thanks to how well enrollment went for A-Zhe's animation class, we've brought on two new teaching assistants for the animation track:

Hei Mao and (Masked) RQ — both absolute legends!!

------------------------------

・Hei Mao

Hei Mao's day job is as a veteran 3D game animator at a game studio, and she's also incredibly well-versed in both Spine and Live2D animation!

She's actually the one who first got A-Zhe into Spine animation!

Since most of Hei Mao's professional work belongs to her company and can't be shared publicly, starting around August she'll be putting together some personal pieces just for our students to reference!

・(Masked) RQ

(Masked) RQ is a well-known Live2D rigger in the V-Skin scene!

She wanted to stay low-key, so we tacked "(Masked)" onto her name ><

She's worked with a ton of big names — like this one:

And she's the one who rigged both a certain Xiaolu's skin and our own Sophie Yao's Reborn 2.0!

With a lineup this stacked, you'd better sign up for A-Zhe's animation class already! (Seats are almost full!)
