COLLABORATION WITH THE DIGITELLING PROJECT
__
Organized by the Goethe-Institut Kroatien and the Français de Croatie Institute, the first regional mentoring program for innovative indie video games has been launched as part of the DigiTelling project.
Participants of the program are provided with mentoring advice from experienced professionals from Germany (Prof. Emmanuel Guardiola / Cologne Game Lab) and the French video game industry (ENJMIN, Angoulême) and academia, as well as participation in a number of relevant professional events. Upon completion of the program, participants will be able to present and promote their completed video games at trade fairs in Germany and France.
The goals of the project are to formulate powerful interactive stories that foster player empathy, enable mentoring of all the artistic disciplines that are part of a video game (music, visual art, animation) and assist with the marketing, presentation and distribution of video games.
As part of the DigiTelling project, a collaboration has been established with the Edu4Games initiative for the development of a video game design degree program within the University of Zagreb – Academy of Dramatic Art, Academy of Fine Arts, School of Design Studies at the Faculty of Architecture, Faculty of Organization and Informatics and Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing.
