So you wanna be a games artist? If you've ever dreamed of creating beautiful environments, dynamic characters, or awesome props for video games, this event will help you get there! It is inspired by our highly successful Speed Networking events, but is directed specifically to aspiring games artists, both 2D and 3D. A diverse panel of industry experts will be on hand to answer 45 minutes' worth of your burning questions, after which you'll be free to mix and mingle on a more informal basis. These experts are drawn from all levels of the games industry. In the past, we've hosted games professionals from such companies as Ubisoft, Eidos, Ludia, Kitfox Games, and Bioware. This event will include free snacks! If you have a CV or portfolio you'd like some quick comments on, please feel free to bring it along. This event is intended for aspiring game artists who identify as women (cis/trans) or gender-fluid. Our generous event sponsor: http://www.bdo.ca/ ------------------------------- Questions?
