5.0 out of 5 stars The Internship Bible for Animation, #1, June 2, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Gardner's Guide to Internships at Multimedia and Animation Studios (Gardner's Guide series) (Paperback)
I found this book to be the Bible for finding an internship in animation. Lots of animation companies, great descriptions of the companies, and advice on writing my resume. I was able to find an internship in the field. I highly recommend this book for high school seniors and college students in CG. I also recommend "Careers in Computer Graphics and Animation" these are two well needed resources.

This review is from: Gardner's Guide to Internships at Multimedia and Animation Studios (Gardner's Guide series) (Paperback)
This books was very helpful in identifying the companies where I can apply for an internship. I live in Los Angeles but did not know how to locate and contact the companies in my area. This is a very useful book!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Misleading Title, Mixed Content, September 28, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Gardner's Guide to Internships at Multimedia and Animation Studios (Gardner's Guide series) (Paperback)
In purchasing this book, I had little information to guide me beforehand; I made the decision based on commentary on other works by this author, the title, and my need for information on internships in this field.

I found myself greviously disappointed. While the information capsules about the employers are indeed helpful, no specifics were given for internships these employers might or might not offer. Instead, the contents of the book (aside from some prefatory material providing poor advice about resumes and cover letters) act as a directory to employers. While I am not discounting the helpfulness of such a directory, the misleading title and the quality of the prefatory material leave this reader with a very low opinion the party responsible for misleadingly marketing this volume.
