After that it's 20 weeks and I'll have an Associates Degree in Applied Science. Also i need to get the A+ at least. Good Luck! |

| _______________________________ [Apr 12,2010 9:35am - sigh ""] Turbine Inc is also located in MA somewhere. I forget which town. They did the LOTR online game. Old college roomate works for them doing level design. Good luck. Like everyone else has said, it's a very competitive industry and doesn't really compensate that well unless you are the CEO or John Carmack. Be prepared to do something completely different from what you have in your head that you are going to be doing...for long hours...for shit pay. It's like any other software development project except the content you deal with is more interesting to you. Not trying to talk you out of it, just sayin. |
| _______________________________ [Apr 12,2010 9:43am - sigh ""] Steve what area are you planning to focus on? 3d Rendering/animation? Texture artist? programming side of things? |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 12,2010 9:56am - arilliusbm ""] Storyboarding? |
| ________________________________ [Apr 12,2010 10:00am - sigh ""] menstrual_sweatpants_disco said:My girlyfriend is toying with the idea of doing some video gameage school. She wants to totally change course from fine art / painting and look into 2d/3d character design. Haven't really done any research on it yet though as far as what's required, what jobs are like, what the demand is like etc. Can't say exactly cause I've never pursued it myself but these skills also apply to the film/tv industry since almost everything is filmed on a green screen these days an painted in later. I'm hoping those movie studios open up on the south shore. Last I heard there were financing issues. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 12,2010 10:42am - arilliusbm ""] Looks like those studios may fall through. The only way it can happen is if they have the financial backing. The company they got the loans from didn't have the money they said. Part of me wants those studios to open up... I'll definitely be hanging around there after I blow thousands in the middleboro casino. |

Texture artist? programming side of things? Programming / slash / design, hopefully - planning on pimping my own pet projects more than trying to work my way through the ranks, but we'll see how it goes. I've got the game design chops from pen-and-paper shit over the years, it's just picking up a programming language newer than Basic (what I learned on). |
