There are few things, assuming you are looking to work with computer graphics:

find a magazine or advert. agency or something of interest to you in the similar field. make sure you like what they do and that you will be able to tolarate the mandane repetitious asignments there - you will have plenty. for example if you are into fashion do not contact technology publications.

when you have the list of "potential victims" contact their design departments for an intern position. they should be interested to hire you if you present yorself correctly - speak of their company and the work they do and tell that you will be trilled if they let you learn from them, etc., etc.

once in - learn the business and network.

goodluck
