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.
