Had a great morning looking round the Digital Screen Media facilities at Leeds Trinity University . A really friendly campus with great resources for film and Tv. And an upcoming games course!

We’re down at the Yorkshire Games Festival , where the programme of speakers looks amazing.

Great talk by ☕Rhianne Murphy☕ at the Yorkshire Games Festival . Exactly the stuff our students need to know, and fun to listen to.

This was fascinating. Adrienne Law taking us through the lenses of narrative design at the Yorkshire Games Festival

An incredible run through level design techniques, and even time for a lovely dog. Sean Gorman // Level Design at Yorkshire Games Festival . Inspirational.

Some astonishing, mind bending game ideas from Huenry Hueffman at Yorkshire Games Festival . I’ve already bought one of these games while he was talking…

We’ve had a brilliant day at the Yorkshire Games Festival , as you may have seen. Best line up yet - inspirational, informative and fun. Thanks everyone.

One last thing - look at this amazing sketch of the speakers, by one of our students. Yorkshire Games Festival

This is our first Games Education Roundtable at Leeds City College. Thanks to those who came - it was enlightening, inspiring and an all round lovely experience. The more educators talk to industry, the better changes our students have of being ready for a job in games.

Down in London Town for the @TIGA manifesto launch.
