Part 1: Based on the notes you took during class, write a brief description and response to the Alumni presentations.

Alejandro- For me Alejandro is someone I can most relate to out of all three of them. I really want to be a game developer for some company here in Austin. I like how he talked about getting to know their audience is key to knowing what kind of game they should make. That is so true, because there are different types of people who do not like the same types of games.

Anthony- Anthony was someone I found really interesting. I did not know about testicular cancer before his presentation. The way he was spreading awareness was so cool. I like how he said that their is no formula for creativity. Creativity is all dependent on your imagination, if you do not have imagination then you do not have creativity.

Edith- Edith I suppose is someone most of us could relate to, she is still new to the outside world, so she has so much to learn. But she does have eyes on her from the City of Austin, even though it might be a part time job and not a full time job. I like how a lot of her work she wants to use her roots as a Mexican. Using your roots as to who you are, then there are endless possibilities as to how your work can turn out.

Part 2: Many of our successful alumni say that their internship was one of the most valuable experiences they had. By searching the web, find at least 3 potential internships that you are interested in, and post the links on your blog. Many art galleries & non-profits, design firms, photo studios, and game companies have internship information on their websites.
