Digital City: North East New Tech




As with every industry its not what but WHO you know and I happen to know someone who works will most of the North Easts...well the local North East Games and Tech companies at Digital city. So thankfully I was invited down to Boho one for the first in what I hope will be many of the North East New Tech events!

I know I'm just a humble wannabe Animator and this tech stuff tends to woosh over my head but most of it was pretty interesting, and I'm not just talking about the buffet. Had a preview to Google+ which was nice considering I'm yet to receive an invite (wimper*) but the best moment of the night was the "headliner" Atom Hawk. They gave a talk about what they were up to recently, but I was kinda distracted away from the main screen by the two artists they had either side doing a live demonstration of concept design. Other then making me realize how much my own pencil work sucks, it was a good inspirational boost to get myself up the backside and get on with things!

Guess its time to go pester some game companies...*GRIN*
