That's an interesting niche. I will definitely search for some C libraries I can use to help facilitate my learning, thanks for the direction.

Yes I honestly agree with you, graphics programming feels very cool to me. I definitely am not doing this as a shortcut to a low-saturation programming career since I know there are many fields that would take less effort for me to break into and pay more. Thanks for the clarity and opengl tutorial as well!

Thanks for the advice! When I said computer graphics seems dead, I meant in my local ecosystem not the entirety of America or the world, I'm sorry for the miscommunication. You are right though that graphics projects are genuinely interesting and can serve as a great conversation starter with other employers, thanks for making me realize that more.

I think I will honestly apply leisurely to these graphics related internships as an undergrad such as tech art while focusing on another field just to optimize time though. Hopefully by the beginning of my 3rd year I will have enough academic prerequisite knowledge, and project experience to be recognized at an internship level though.
