Curious about Futuregames? On thursday we will be at Kulturhuset in Stockholm, where Bazaren (Swedens biggest employment and education faire) is taking place. This would be a great opportunity for you to swing by and talk to us in person and get information about us as well as the other educations from Change Maker Educations.
See you there!
We have been receiving a lot of questions regarding applications lately. We’d like to inform you that more information regarding applications for Futuregames2015 will be available on our website by the end of February.
So there is no rush to decide which program to apply to quite yet, future game developers! Take your time, keep calm and carry on.
And in Swedish:
Vi har fått många frågor på senare tid vad gäller ansökningsprocessen till Futuregames. Därför skulle vi vilja informera er om att med information angående ansökningar till Futuregames2015 kommer mot slutet av februari månad.
Du har med andra ord fortfarande gott om tid på dig att bestämma vilket program du ska söka! Ta det lugnt, spela lite och återkom i slutet på februari!
Welcome to the year 2015! We hope that the transition from 2014 wasn’t too awkward for any of you and that you had a most pleasant time over the holidays. A short while before the holidays we had a visit from our friends over at DICE.
Linnea Harrison, World builder, and Dennis Brännvall, Lead Level Designer, came to talk a bit about what they do at Dice. They also told us a bit about how and why they got into the industry and what the expectations are of their respective roles.
Thank you for the visit, Linnea and Dennis! I’m sure our students learnt a great deal and we hope to see you again soon.
