Landing an Oxford internship while building an award winning third-year game | Degree Show Stories

"Hi, I'm Iz. I'm doing third year game art.

"I'm working on Atelier's Key. It is a dark fantasy first-person shooter set in a root-bound Victorian world inhabited by puppets. My role primarily on this project has been an environment artist. I've mostly been doing texture art. I've also been doing a lot of the promotional materials for the game.

"I've really been enjoying learning a lot of the theory behind modelling, a lot of the technical aspects, and it's a lot of knowledge that I didn't even realise was out there, but has been very exciting to get my hands on and learn.

"Expo is this big end-of-year show, and everyone gets to show what they've been working on. And you have people from industry coming in, you have people's friends and family coming in, and it's all set up on campus. And it's just a really nice couple of days where you just get to celebrate all the stuff that you've been working on really hard for the past year.

"I have reached final stage interviews with multiple companies, and I have an internship lined up in Oxford."
