The Internship Chronicles: Summer Edition – Colton interns at Tuque Games
Colton Orr (GART ’18) spent his spring semester interning at Tuque Games in Montreal and had the opportunity to continue at Tuque throughout the summer. Colton tell us about both his experiences!
On the last day of finals, during the fall of my Junior year, I was offered a position as a character artist at Tuque Games. I had my heart set on working at the studio during the following summer and when I was given the opportunity to start working a semester early, there were many obstacles. Nevertheless, Champlain’s faculty in both Burlington and Montreal went above and beyond to help me get a work visa and arrange my classes to make the internship a reality.
The skills I have learned and the people I have met because of working at Tuque are invaluable to my career. My internship threw me into the production pipeline on day one and since then I have been creating assets for our newest game that is set to release later this year.
