finally, 4 years of that place is enough to drive anyone mad.
i got my grades through today:
BTEC First Diploma in Games Development: MMM
BTEC National Diploma in Games Development: DDM
it's the second one that's important, as that's the "a-level" one.
so i'm off to university to study games design!
anyone else got their grades back yet?
hearty congrats!
which uni are you off to, dicko?
leeds met!
just awaiting confirmation on accommodation.
well done!
Congratulations!
BTEC National Diplomas ftw!
Leeds Met ftw!
haha what are you doing?
or did you do
i was at
Leeds College of Music
now i'm doing Music Tech at leeds met.
getting a house in hyde park?
hopefully!
i'd love one there
it was seriously a nightmare passing this
since towards the end of the year, one of our tutors decided to fall ill and we didn't hear from him again, so we had to do loads of work ourselves, which we were told was wrong and had to do half a years work in three weeks. ridiculous.
august :(
nightmare :(
what course?
i did a levels
english lit, history, spanish
Well done Dicko!
That must have hurt!
You're almost one-third of your way to a full Crash Test Dummies anthem!
or, Congratulations from someone who doesn't understand that grading system!
haha basically
D(istinction) = A
M(erit) = B
P(ass) = C
so i got two A's and a B :)
:D actualolrofllmao!
hahaha
top work
Congratulations Dicko...
now away and get drunk.
i actually think i miss college
i had nothing to worry about the whole time really and just got hang around with my mates and i knew pretty girls
i'm going to miss it for these reasons
apart from the last three weeks were hell.
congrats
where you going?
leeds met :D
can't wait!
good stuff
i remember when they started that course...I've heard good things from people who did the masters there
i'm hoping to do the masters
we'll see though
MASTER OF GAMES DESIGN
it's like a geeky version of he-man
fuck the masters man
apply for jobs now!!!
apart from EA
stay away from EA
i would never sell my soul
rockstar north is in leeds, i might apply there.
that would be amazing
but don;t they have like an a level maths requirement?
or you hoping to get straight into design and past coding?
that's gonna be hard
yeah, it will be
i can basically work in any of these departments:
programming
3d modelling
3d animation
environments
game design
level design
which makes me pretty useful i reckon!
have you got a portfolio of stuff you done?
anything available online?
not yet
well, apart from the first game i ever made, which sucks balls really.
you should release it!!
replace all the baddie sprites with annoying disers' faces
this is an excellent idea
i'll get right on it!
Congrats! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
yaaaaaaaaaay
this is reallly cool.
i wish i could so something like this
