The World of Warcraft Student Art Contest was created as an outlet for students who are excited about creating stylized, hand-painted game. Over the years, it’s helped many artists kick off their careers on the Warcraft team here at Blizzard, and across the games industry at large.

We wanted give you an overview of the contest and the impact it’s had—and can have—on student artists. The contest is coming your way beginning October 15, 2018. For more information, go to www.blizzard.com/students.

Enjoy the video and we look forward to seeing your entry!- – Jeff Parrott (Senior Art Manager, World of Warcraft)
