Testimonials

“Over the years we have had the pleasure of hiring several artists from CADA. They have ranged from highly specialized people to CG generalists. We have been very happy with the expertise that these artists have brought to our team and we do expect to see more faces from CADA in the future.”

JEPPE NYGAARD CHRISTENSEN

CEO | Ghost VFX

“Teaching at CADA was a great experience. The program is very professional, well run and offers students the skills and opportunities to enter the 3D industry in many disciplines.”

MICHAEL EASTON

Lead Animator | Industrial Light & Magic

“At A. Film Production we are always looking for new talent and CADA is one of the places we keep a close eye on. Their education provides students with the necessary technical background that they could jump into our feature productions. Our TD and Rigging supervisor comes from a background at CADA and we look forward to following their new training program and the upcoming talents / students from CADA.”

LISE ANN MANGINO

Producer | A. Film Production

“Students at CADA have something at their grasps that a lot of other students at other schools don’t have and that is hands on, one-on-one training with a working professional. I had a great experience teaching my students during my stay at CADA and I couldn’t help but think “I wish I had this when I was in school.” 

ANDY BYRNE

VFX Supervisor | Crafty Apes

“I have closely studied CADA education program and I think that it’s a really good program for giving the students good solid technical and creative ballast that will equip them to jump right into a job in the pulsating business life.”

STEFAN FJELDMARK

Director | Eyecandyfilm

“CADA is an oasis of creativity in a very streamlined environment. The school has created the scenography, and we the students play the parts in order to create a good environment around the studies. It is a sort of a family room where you can enhance your own potential but still be part of a greater community.”

MADS HAYSTRUP
