What are the methods and benefits of incorporating computer games into film and audiovisual education? This will be explained in our workshop in which you can also create a simple video game. Digital games have become an integral part of our everyday lives. They strongly influence the way we perceive audiovisual content, and it should be noted that they are no longer a kids’ domain. Adults spend similar amount of time on gaming. Moreover, computer games draw much inspiration from film industry and they are often made by professional filmmakers – screenwriters, editors and animators. All in all, their relationship and interaction is definitely worth investigating.
Since we will be using software in English, a decent knowledge of the language is a plus. Lecturers will provide you with a dictionary of basic terms to help you out.
