The first few weeks of game design have been quite stressful we have been working on assignments that require a lot of time and prior knowledge, most of the assignments I have been able to finish on time but some occasions I would have to use time outside of class to get the assignment completed. In class, we have also begun to work on hand drawing skill which I am glad to be doing because in my drawing I have been struggling with anatomy so I feel like with the way class has been going so far this will be a very interesting year when it comes to 3d modeling and creating digital art.

Currently, within my game design class, I have learned many things about the game industry, job interviews, and the job application process. I have learned about the information that you would need when applying for a job such as how to create the paperwork that you would need when applying for a job a resume and a cover letter is what an employer wants to see; before this assignment, I did not know how to create any documentation for when applying for a job so I am glad we have learned this. From what I have learned a resume is a summary of your work experience, and a cover letter is a detailed summary of your work experience as it relates to your job. Though a cover letter is not required it is recommended to make to help you convince your future employer why they should heir you, and depending on the job you are applying for a portfolio would be a good item to have since it highlights your artistic talent and capabilities. A resume states the facts – who, what, when, and how, as well as details on skills, education, and work history, resumes can also have optional sections, such as an objective summary statement, skills, or career highlights. There are different types of resumes: chronological, functional, and combination. A chronological resume is quite common it is where you list your work experience in reverse chronological order, from the most to the least recent. A functional resume is when you list your work experience in reverse chronological order, from the most to the least recent. Then a combination resume is when you list your skills and experience before your employment history. Before this research, I didn't know any of this information so I'm glad I was able to educate my self a on how to get a job and I hope this information could help you to.
