This upcoming Spring Break I will be going down south with my dad to some colleges to check out the campuses and look into some of the classes they provide. My dad also wants me to contact some of the schools to make appointments with the professors and give the schools a heads up that I will be coming by. As of now, I will be going to look at UCLA, UCSB, UC Davis, UC Irvine, and Cal Poly. I still have to contact the schools, but I will most likely be doing that today. I'm most excited for UCLA because in an earlier blog post I found that Pixar does internships with UCLA.
I was also told to contact both Pixar and Dreamworks to find internships that they offer and what classes they most likely look for on applications. Most of the classes they look for include computer programming or any computer science class, a certain level of artistic skills whether it be drawing or computer graphics, and even some business degrees. This seems like a good path to follow when asking the colleges for passes to see some classes.
It sounds like you going to have quite a productive break:)I admire your determination:) good luck with every thing Karl:) and have a great break:)
