GDC CA Application
10/18/14
First things first.
What's "GDC"
That's the Game Developers Conference held in San Francisco, CA every year. I went one year, a junior in college, with nary any game experience or any idea what to expect. I showed up on a Wednesday (starts on a Monday and ends on a Friday), and I was incredibly inefficient.
I had a blast.
I want do go again, but tickers are expensive.
Enter the CA
The "CA" is a Conference Associate. It's a volunteer position for GDC. For a mere 25 hours of work, you get an "All Access" pass, which is about $1000 value.
Hell yes.
It's also extremely competitive, with limited positions and many applicants. I falied to get in last year.
If at first you don't suceed, yada yada yada....
The application stuff starts here. I'm going to save what I write, but I'm not going to make it public. I think that might be frowned upon or whatever.
Maybe I'll post more if I learn otherwise.
