VITTA ICT Career Expo
Video games don’t just appear from nowhere. Somewhere, right now, there are people writing code, making art, designing levels and putting the finishing touches on games that will eventually find their way into PCs and consoles all over the world. In Australia, there are around 2500 people doing just that and this number is expected to grow dramatically over the next 5 years. In this presentation, Paul Callaghan, who has worked as a programmer, a game designer, and now a games teacher, will talk about how he found his way into the industry, how things have changed since then, how it’s possible to earn a living from it, and how it’s not all just sitting around playing games all day.
