Video Game Presentation

#1

Hey everyone I will be giving a presentation on the videogame industry on Thursday Oct 7 at Rhodes College in Memphis TN from 6 to 8 pm. This presentation is gear to technology professionals who want to know more about the industry or people who are just generaly interested in the industry(hobbiest/startups/looking for a game job)

The presentation will be broad. I cover be covering alot

Some Topics Include:
Game programming such as data base managment, rendering technology, middleware and such.
Content Creation such as game engine intergration with 3dmax, sound design.
How to start up/get up a job

Since I will be covering alot I will not go into alot of technical detail(depending on the audience, I don’t want to create the deer in the headlights stare)

If any of you are close to this area feel free to come by. I will be giving away some free games and other stuff.

Thanks

Now I just need to find Rhodes College…

Hey

It went pretty well. I had a little under 70 people show up. If you want to check out some of stuff from the presentation (slides notes) go here www.rendermatrix.com its at the bottom of that front page.

Also there where a few pictures taken which can be viewed at www.thetoad.org Its on the front page in the middle somewhere.

It lasted about 3 hours, 2 hours for the presentation and an hour of questions.

Also we are planing on starting up a game group (maybe igda status too). If you are interested in that just let me know and I will add you too the list(its free). I will probably have a small meeting sometime in a few weeks.

Just curious are you more on the content creation side (art) or programming.
