How do you go from playing with ideas to essentially acquiring the life skills to get a media production up and running? This workshop focuses on the challenges of breaking into the videogame industry and picking up the skills to achieve it.

Seminar will be conducted by Vivienne Koh from Changemaker Educations in Boden, Sweden - whose Futuregames courses fast track creative talents with skills to develop their ideas. Nickole Li, is a game designer at DICE and has worked for a broad gamut of AAA production companies and will talk about what kind of skills studios are looking for in new talents. Henriette Myrlund will also be talking about her experience working on commercial and indie productions here in Tromsø, and a behind the scenes look of developing her project, The Cabin.
