GDC 2010

As I may have mentioned before, I was present at the Game Developer's Conference this past week, from Thursday to Saturday in the conference and in San Fransisco from Wednesday to Monday. The trip was completely worthwhile, giving me dozens of leads on where to start my career as well as introducing me to a slew of interesting people, and, as an added bonus, it was a great time!



I was there with Team Playground as well as James Xu and a few other people from DeVry. I met with more companies than I can count, and also had a very exciting interview with Dov Jacobson of Games That Work, who I'm excited to hear back from. I'm also looking to apply to Naughty Dog, Sony, Bally's, Gazillion, High Voltage, Intel, and a bunch of other places. As a team we met with Majesco about publishing ShadowCast, as well as with Randy from the FBI about an upcoming contract for a field agent training simulator. Also, ShadowCast was on display at DeVry's booth the entire time, and it was really nice to see our work at the conference.



In between the expos and the interviews I spent some time enjoying the company of friends and the local night life. San Fransisco has a very exciting night life, with a lot to do and see, assuming you're of age, and we had a blast. We also attended a couple parties and did some networking there. I have a lot of follow-up emails to write, and if you're reading this and haven't heard from me, please contact me.



I'll keep updating with my progress towards a career, and as for GDC11 - expect me to be there.
