DeadlySpartanII Posted Oct 5, 2008 6:05 am AEST I agree, very well-done article I'm a 15yr old in yr10 from Melbourne and I wanted to be in the gaming industry ever since i like games, art and computers, and I want to work in here in Melbourne. What was hard is to know what is required before a can get a placement in a college like Qantm or AIE. For example, did I need to do multimedia in high school to do animation for a course? Did I have to do IT in high school to do games programming? But apparently for QANTM college, all you need is senior English for most of the courses and math methods and senior English if im doing games programming. Guess I'll have to change my courses for high school next year from general maths to math methods to keep myself open for other career opportunities in the gaming industry. I was planning to be a something in the animation course like concept artist, but I also wouldn't mind doing Games Programming as a backup course just in case they needed one rather then a concept artist. This article has pushed me even more to strive to work at a gaming industry in Melbourne. I hope we get that funding from the Government.
