I love art, I'm always drawing sketches, swords, etc whenever I can, even though I may not be the greatest at it. I find myself pretty lucky to be living in Vancouver, with so many respected colleges and universities around me.
The problem is, I cant figure out what to study. Its going to be in the Arts field (not for sure), but I"m not sure. 3D Artist, 2D Artist, Game Designer, etc.
I love to work in teams, great communication skills, and very creative. It would be great to sit at a table with other people and discuss ideas for a game, how things work etc.
Now I know I need experience, and there's some great companies in the Vancouver area, Blue Castle Games for one (Dead Rising 2), and many more that are taking straight-out-of-college grads to work with them.
Also, I love photoshop. It's a really fun program, and I would to get to know it more.
The problem is, I have no where to start. I guess if you guys helped me decide what to do, I could know where to start.
All help is appreciated, thanks alot
PS: Samwise is kinda my idol at Blizzard LOL! Hail and Kill, repping the long hair. He inspires me, and being an art designer would be really fun.
PSS: I know this all wont happen in a day, but I'm a very dedicated person when I want something, and I'm not stopping until I get it.
PSSS: I took a course at my high school that teaches us about programs, like Photoshop, Word, Excel (everything except photoshop was pretty useless since I already knew it, and quite boring), and I'm taking a more advanced version of it this year, just FYI
Thanks alot!
