Where do you want to go, and how do you get there?
I think that this a subject I go over with myself on a daily basis but to put into words is difficult. So here goes.
I believe as a course when I chose it, I looked at it as an opportunity to get an insite to what it takes to survive in the games industry. In a quick summary I beleive that I was far from ready before I came to uni, but know I feel I can look at it in a different light and see how that just from one year that as a whole, the group are ready for alot more. I think some could even cope with industry standard work.
I have got more confident as this year has progressed and I believe that to be uni life in general, but course wise I have become more confident in my work and can only see that as getting more precise and inventive or should I say more creative.
As for the next 2 years I beleive that the skills I have gained can only become more refined and that as technology advances so will my skills. I feel at the moment I learn something knew on the computers and think that will continue and help me to improve.
After I finish at uni I would be happy to go to a reasonably good company as a games artist.
I would love at sometime to say I want to be lead artist but find it at the moment to be a little ambitious for me to go straight into that kind of role.
Another idea was that I wanted to look at becoming an art director, but decided that if I did that that was going to be in the distant future.
If I was to fail getting a job in the buisness right away, I would I think look at taking another degree in computers so as to prove that I kno
w what I'm doing.

w what I'm doing.The company that has been mentioned by a few people as somewhere they dont mind working is Blitz Games. I myself have thought about it too.
But It got me thinking what games would I really enjoy working on and I think that I would love to work on the Resident Evil games.
When I found out about the group project it got me very excited and thinking about how it would be great practice and find out if I really would enjoy it as much as I think I would. Then I remembered that it is capcom that make the Resident Evil games and started to search for games they made that I would not of enjoyed making and thought well I will just have to hope they dont make sequels to them.
Till next time cya.
