VFS Announces GDX 2010

VFS [1]VancouverVancouver Film School [1] has officially announced the dates for their very successful Game Design Expo [2]. Version 4 of GDX will take place April 10 and 11, 2010.  GDX 2009 [3]GDX will again feature a day of industry sessions on April 10, followed by an open house and more sessions on the 11th at Vancouver Film School. Featuring guest speakers and panels with the leading minds in game design and development, representing some of the industry’s top companies, the Game Design Expo is a must-attend event. Last year’s sold-out event featured a very entertaining and informative keynote address given by Ubisoft Montreal’s Creative Director Clint Hocking. The entire expo is full of opportunities to learn from and meet with some of the top people in the game development industry, and GDX certainly tops our list of well-produced events.

VFS is now accepting submissions from game industry professionals wishing to present at Game Design Expo 2010, so if you have something to say and have a desire to share that knowledge with industry peers and up-and-coming talent, download this PDF form [4] for more information.

GDX 2009 Women In Games Panel [3]For companies and individuals interested in becoming a sponsor of Game Design Expo 2010, please download the PDF sponsorship kit here [5]. In my opinion, participating in the Game Design Expo as either a sponsor, speaker, volunteer or attendee is time and money well spent. GDX is an investment in the future of our game development industry, and the quality of the event’s speaker roster, topics and organization is reinforced by the fact that GDX has been completely sold out for each of its first three years.
