@deathsaver I've been interning at a studio for about a month now, but it's different for everyone.

Hey, I've seen a lot of your videos. I'm in the online game design program, and if all goes with my plan, I'll be moving to the campus for my masters in a couple of years after my bachelors. So, something that triggered my interest when I saw your final project posts is a recommendation. My question to you is what would you assets would you recommend for a person in my position, as an artist, that your game dev team did/didn't do that you liked/hoped for?

[TheCreativeItch]

@TheSuperfrank88 I'm having trouble understanding what you're asking. The game design masters students didn't have much involvement in making the game, just scheduling and management. The game development students are the programmers and we were the artists.

[TheSuperfrank88]

@TheCreativeItch They were only involved in scheduling and management? Wow! So in a percentile who design's the final project game? 33% between the three groups, or 100% from the designers.

I recently downloaded all of the Autodesk software so I can become familiar with it, in case I needed to contribute. Also, I can code and I am currently expanding my languages so I can look at the programming and know what it says.Is this a good idea or waste of time for someone who is focusing on designing?

[TheCreativeItch]

@TheSuperfrank88 The masters program isn't geared towards designing the game, it's more of the "business" end of the industry, so the title is a little misleading. 100% of the game is colab'ed between the game developers and artists. The masters students have no say, they just lead the way. It's always a good idea to expand your horizons, knowledge is power.

@tree50maro Apprently they switch the online degree to 32 months for the people who start after January or something. A one class a month option would be nice...if you're working or something or just wanna take your time... I dunno. Anyway, awesome work landing a job man. You gotta let me know how it is at Tiburon.

[tree50maro]

I havent heard about 32 months Anthony. Sitting around with Aaron, Dan and James I never heard anything of the sorts. Only that there is going to be a one class a month option which could in turn be 32 months long if you break it down... maybe.
