A preview of the 2009 Game Design Expo |
Ó
On the 7th of February to the 8th 2009, the Vancouver Film School is hosting the third annual Game Design Expo at the Vancouver International Film Centre. Having a sold out event last year, things are being set up for another huge crowd.All eyes and ears in the expo will be on Clint Hocking, as he runs a series of talks and panels with high-profile game designers. The event begins with Industry Speaker Day, where devs and gamers alike will benefit from the top names in gaming today, including Epic, Insomniac, Radical, and Relic. Panelists from EA, Obsidian, and Propaganda will also take the center stage later that day. Those interested can get tickets for CDN$ 75 for the full day.
On the 8th, VFS will open its Game Design Campus, where visitors get to test games created by students and alumni, take classes, and meet the students and faculty. They're also hosting a special Women in Games panel, which will be in-line for the Women in Games CDN$ 30,000 scholarship. Other scholarships will be announced in the open house as well.
And what's a Game Design Expo without devs bringing the goods? Expect to see exclusive presentations from LucasArts, Big Fish, and Vicarious Visions.
If you wanna go, then you'd better register early.

Whatever
if you wanted to make games...or were even interested in how they are made. Not to mention talking to the people that make them, then this event would excite you. Even if you are not interested in that, it's these types of events where the people that do make your games exchange ideas....
