March 28 Event

Animation to Games

How we did it and how you can too!

Are you an animator with an interest in learning how to make indie video games? Join ASIFA Portland, Cascade ACM SIGGRAPH, and the Portland Indie Game Squad in an evening of learning how community members have transitioned their passions and careers in animation to working on videogames! Hear experiences, see tools, and ask questions of local professionals, hobbyists, and students to give you a variety of ways in which you can approach collaborations and careers in interactive mediums. After presentations, we’ll be using the theater’s screen to play games that revisit some of the different techniques and styles that we’ve recently witnessed from presenters. This event will also be jointly advertised between the ASIFA, SIGGRAPH, and PIGSquad communities, so attendees are encouraged to interact with presenters and network at this time. Let’s talk about making some games together!
