Part-Time Work

Submitted by Kowai on

Hey guys!

I'm a student in Melbourne, with college 3 days a week looking to gain some industry experience. Has anyone heard of any studios offering part-time work/work experience? I highly doubt my luck but I thought it'd be good to ask. I'm looking forward to one day being a modeller or animator.
I know there are internship programs but they usually require you to have finished college.. How annoying! I only have to wait til the end of this year which is lucky though.

Hi Kowai,

Sorry for the late response. Most studios that I'm aware of do not offer part-time work or work experience. However, you can get lucky - I managed to get an internship with Auran in Brisbane. But I don't know of any companies in Melbourne that offer anything similar.

You should check out your local IGDA chapter though - it's an opportunity to talk to people in the industry and start networking.

And if you're not too busy, you could always join a mod/indie dev team to get some experience.

Good luck!
