Game Art & Design Club

Hey n00b & Veteran Gadlings!

I hope everyone had an awesome 1st week! Anyway, there are a couple
things going around the school that look pretty exciting for the next
week. First off, on Tuesday, Lucas Film/Arts will be in the gallery
from 5-6. They will be here to talk about their exciting internship
program: The Jedi Academy! This is a very good chance to get
information on how to apply and what is expected from you to join
their ranks.

Also, further in the week, we are having club fair! W00T! Come one and
all to see the various clubs, but also to support GAD club (we get $$$
for the club if we have an awesome table >:D). If you have any ideas,
or would like to help out, send me an email ASAP (we need people to
make sweet goodies to swoon over students). Last but not least, GAD
Lan is officially on Fridays for this quarter in the basement.

One last thing, GAD Club has a blog. Crazy I know, but we have one and
if you miss one of these emails (because I know you will ^_^) I will
also post this exact message on the blog with maybe a couple other
things. At least visit so you know it does exist.

See ya!

Just in case you haven’t checked it out yet .

Also, remember to ask the Career Services folk (especially Denise) for more internship opportunities.

Did anyone remember the Tokyo Game Show was this weekend? Interestingly enough, there wasn’t any huge surprises that weren’t anticipated (at least for me). If you want more on the event, visit http://www.g4tv.com/tgs2008/

Hello Fellow GAD club Members!

Hi! My name is Nathalie! I am the brand new GAD President starting this Quarter. To tell you a little about myself, I am originally from the east coast (New England! Go Patriots!) and the first system I ever played on was a Sega Genesis. I would say my top 3 favorite genres are Fighting (SCIV) and RPGs (FFX, FFVIICC). Ok, so now that you know a little about me, I would like to address some other business.

We are still meeting on the 6th floor from 5-6pm in the same room (611). As a reminder, VP is Phil and Treasure Troll is Elliot Davis. Also, we will be setting up the day we do game night this Monday.

That is all I have for this week, but tune in next week!

See ya!

Sincerely, Your President,

Nathalie <3

P.S. Here is a little article I thought all you Game Designers would be interested in!

Week 11 we had elections.  The results are as following:

President: Nathalie

Vice Predator: Phil

Treasure Troll: Elliot

Potluck was great! Thanks for all who came and made it such a success.  I’ll see everyone next quarter!  Same time, same place, and with fresh new leadership.

Today at GAD Club I will be showing the games from Game Jam IV and giving out prizes to the winner (if the judging is done)  I will also be giving out the prizes for the tournaments at the last GADLAN.  That should take a while but after that we can talk about new releases and industry stuff.  This Thursday is GADLAN again and this time it will be handheld themed.  So bring your portables to room 911 after 5 or 6pm on Thursday.

See you at the meeting! (Monday 5-6 room 612)

President Brian

Hello yet again GADlings,
