It is that time of year again! The 2009 Fall Tour kick’s off on October 16th in downtown Toronto. For those of you unfamiliar with the event, it is basically an amazing chance for any student in the digital media field to come down with a bunch of their buddies and take part in an entire day of studio-hopping. We get a rare chance to go into some of Toronto’s biggest, baddest and/or most kick-ass studios and agencies on a work day in order to see what its like to work there. Each studio prepares a presentation for the students which is followed by a question period and then a quick walk to the next stop on the tour. This is a great chance to get your name out there, ask questions and learn more about the industry you’re about to walk in to.

Stops on the tour this year include Organic, Blast Radius, Critical Mass, Oddly, Teehan+Lax and Amoebacorp to name a few.

Even with the Fall Tour rapidly expanding each year, there are only a limited number of seats! This year I believe the cut-off is 200 students, so get signed up! It’s free for God’s sake.

Don’t underestimate the Fall Tour. I went last year and not only did it help me network and even land a job at two agencies this past summer that I might not have gotten otherwise!

PS. That’s me who Josh Hirsch from Big Spaceship is throwing the T-shirt to at 5:42 of the video. I correctly answered what DUMBO stood for (their location in NY).

PSS. Isn’t that a hot logo? Haha.
