I'm Going to GDC! Anyone else?
« on: February 27, 2007, 05:06:23 PM »
I'm going to GDC! I'm going to GDC! HOORAY! HOORAY! I.... won't get to see Miyamoto speak. /sad

Anyways, Devry is gonna be at GDC because they want to have a presence in this new field of Game Programming Colleges, and they want us students to man the booth. I'm part of a group that has a side project (sort of a FFT clone... but innovative like) with stuff we can show on a computer screen (severely amateurish 2D stuff), so we got 5 free tickets! Expo passes! All three days! YAY!!!!

We gotta man the booth some hours there though all three days, but whatever. It's totally awesome... GDC MAN! GDC! WHOOOOO!

Anyone else going? Anyone got tips for us not to look like glaring amateurs even though our really pitiful incomplete Direct 3D project will clearly mark us as such?

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.

Wear a shirt, pants. No tie, bring underware but not to wear. Be sure to look wide-eyed.

Take a camera and some sort of voice recording device. We expect an after-action repot.

Have fun :P

Every other sentence shout "I'm at GDC, Hooray!"

your lucky i go to an Art Institute and the school doesn't do anything special to get students to go to conventions even though the teachers are all for it.
