This Week has exposed me to a multitude of careers that are available in the game design industry. I personally would prefer being a Narrative designer because i like to write, read, and create a world in a story and twist it to my own creative ends; however, this week i also looked into careers such as: game designer, game programmer, and animator, and whereas they were interesting, they were not for me in that m art is not up to par and i realize that programming just is not for me. Firstly, most of the careers are based around art, as game design in and of itself is like a team art project. Second, it also stand to reason that most require a college education, which is a bachelors degree in your career oriented skill. This research did not so much influence my choice of career as much as give a face to a name, so to speak, though this research did showed me that to be in the industry that you would have to be very committed as most of the careers were freelance jobs unless they worked for a game company. Lastly, this week opened my eyes to a lot as far a jobs in the game industry are concerned, and i hope that i can find myself in my desired job in the future. |
