I'll mention it to my friend and see if he can sort someone who will be able to discuss the procedure of game development through with you.

When would you want the person and what age is the target audience?

Lynnie_pitch nee Leigh · 10-12-2008, 11:38

It would be late January.

Target audience is 11 - 16 year olds.

Thanks Karl

you're fab!

Lynnie_pitch nee Leigh · 16-12-2008, 12:43

Karl could you let me know if you've had any luck please

NokkonWud · 16-12-2008, 13:23

Yeah, I will do. I've not spotted him online much - I guess he's still sorting his house etc.. out over there. When I see him on I'll collar him.

Cool

Okay, I've spoken to him (finally - 4 times we've missed each other today alone). He said he'll have a word with a few of the lads back home in Liverpool but would like to know exactly when you'd be looking for because the lads would have to get out the 'office' for a couple of hours and would need to know when.

Neil says:
what i can do is send an email to the lads back there and see if anyone is interested and can get some time away from the office.,

It would be 3pm - 4pm an date after 20th January.

I would like someone who could give the kids a talk about how they are involved in creating games. How they go through the stages of design, is it similar to animation from storyboard to creation or is it more complicated.

Some pics / a powerpoint presentation showing what they do too would be good.

Thanks for all your time and help Karl

It's like animation. Concept, storyboards, creative writers.
Except more roles are used in making games.
