I hate to break it to you, but what people call "love" is just a chemical reaction that compels animals to breed. It hits hard Morty then it slowly fades leaving you stranded in a failing marriage. I did it. Your parents are going to do it. Break the cycle Morty, rise above, focus on science. -Rick Sanchez
Sounds like a bulls~~~ profession that is narrow in scope with strong odds against breaking into even IF you get an internship. The best bet is to walk into the place. Or e-mail the hiring manager etc. Make sure you include a cover letter and resume etc. Best of luck kid.

Hey bro,
First, let me say that anything is possible, EVERYTHING is negotiable. At one point I found myself driving Tanks in the Army until I realized it didn’t provide much of a future. So, without much help at all, I carved my own path into the IT field. And it has paid off time and again. During my journey I’ve realized a few things by means of lessons learned, hope they help or at least provide you some fruitful guidance. I may not have all the answers, especially specific to that field, however, I do love my Anime, and with all things being equal, here is how to wedge you’re foot in the door. IMHO.
1) Rarely is the path to success a straight line. Be mindful that if offered a position doing anything in house, take it. Yes, that includes being a go-for or janitor. Reason I say this is that if you can understand one thing, you can understand seven. I can’t tell you how many times I thought one thing, idea, thought was a rock when it really turned out to be a diamond (catalyst) leading to greater things.
2) If you do decide to waltz in their with no known experience, be sure to come prepared. Have story boards, artwork, and if you can muster if, a 5 minute video of your work that showcases not only your talent, but you’re passion.
3) Prepare an oral pitch; no greater than 30 sec in length. This is known as the elevator pitch. Anything after 30 sec is simply rambling, and you will lose the other persons attention.
4) Be presentable. Before approaching anyone within the firm, walk in, observe your surroundings. How are people dressed? What is the environment? Are people extremely professional or more akin to being relaxed? Recon and mimic accordingly.
5) Do your homework on the company. Know them better than they no themselves. Research the companies mission statement if they have one, be sure to echo that within your 30 sec pitch. Also, do some homework on the people that work there. Specifically the big fish. Think “Social Engineering”. Find out who is the chief there. Look up his LinkedIn profile. Bare in mind that most of this stuff can be done over the phone. Don’t sound to desperate for info, make it as casual as possible. Know you’re “target” better than they do themselves.
6) If rejected, and there is the possibility that this will happen, be sure to take it with a grain of salt. Per say you get in front of “The Man” and he says he likes your work, but thinks you need to work on your “inking” skills or storyboard layout, do just that. And then return, say, 3 months later showing your improvement. This is turn will shown him that
you are A) Serious about your goal B) You can take criticism and C) You can follow direction.
7) If you follow rule #6, and nothing still comes of it, at least you have honed a skill-set, and that is never-EVER a loss.
As a final thought, never let someone tell you you’re idea is stupid, or doesn’t make sense. Those that say a thing can’t be done are literally narrow minded, as they lack the ability to see the exact picture in your head as you do. And when you get there, all they see is the Flash, and not the FIRE it took to get there. You have to WANT it. Like a thief with a bad habit, when one ask you “How much is enough?”, you have to mean it when you say “Just a little bit more!” In the military I was called a CDAT (Computerized Dumb-Ass tanker).. And not that money makes the man, but I now make more Money in a Year than my entire crew.. combined.

Funny, isn't it? How women thrive on a mans time, attention and resources, while simultaneously telling him he isn't enough...
Do extensive research on how to do an excellent resume and cover letter. Send them one. While we’re on the subject, why not apply for an open position, which would be a step or two higher than an internship.
Society asks MGTOWs: Why are you not making more tax-slaves?
Honestly, I feel like the sad truth is that acquiring an internship generally requires months of failed interviews and rejection emails. It doesn’t really sound to me like the internship you have in mind is a very safe bet. If I were you, I’d just apply for every internship that comes along, (You absolutely have to have one to not graduate into obscurity with no experience) and try to build up a decent work history while keeping your dream job on your list for the future. -Once you’ve established a good work history, many more doors will open for you. Now’s not the time to be picky.
