I just sent in my applications for a few of Blizzard's 2010 summer internships, I am already expecting many rejection emails. >.< But, what I keep telling myself is, "At least you applied Lindsay!" I'm trying to have confidence, but I mean c'mon it's Blizzard for goodness sake!!
What's a bit ironic about the whole thing is that I didn't really apply for any art internships, I applied for the technical artist internship and that's it, but I couldn't really finish any drawings or concept pieces before the deadline. Submitting a WIP is just a big no no :P and all of my old crap is just plain unacceptable, haha. There is always next year though!
What's kinda cool is that I applied for the game tester position and got to write up a game analysis on my current favorite game, Mass Effect 2! I've analyzed games before, in my head, but never in a strict format. It was SO fun! I wish all my essays for art history could be about game analyses. :P I'm not quite sure what format, or how long, Blizzard wanted the analysis to be but mine turned out to be about 2 1/2 pages in the end.
Now I'm in internship application mode!! I'm excited to apply for the other companies that are on my "list" for internships I want this summer. I even have them prioritized according to how badly I want them and how close the deadline is. Next up is Riot Games, I would LOVE to intern there! League of Legends was a great beta to participate in and they just seem like a great group of people.
Anywhobers, I'm off to sleep and go through a few weeks of panic before I receive info (or lack there of) from Blizzard.
