Today we'd like to quickly remind you that organizers of the 2018 Game Developers Conference are still accepting VRDC@GDC talk submissions -- but only until this Friday, September 29th at 11:59 pm Pacific!

Of course, officials are also accepting talks that would be a good fit for the other GDC Summits, and the Game Career Seminar at GDC 2018, which is happening in San Francisco March 19-23 of next year.

However, we're highlighting the Virtual Reality Developers Conference @ GDC (or VRDC@GDC) because a very special, cutting-edge portion of GDC where attendees learn to create amazing, immersive VR and AR experiences for games as well as entertainment of all kinds–including films, travel, retail, fitness, product design, journalism, and sports entertainment.

The VRDC@GDC advisors are seeking proposals on the following topics. These topics are the foundation of the programs this year. However, feel free to submit your own original ideas for consideration as well.

At GDC and VRDC@GDC, we aim to achieve diversity of voice, experience and perspective. When considering who would be best to speak on behalf of your company or department, we strongly encourage taking this goal into consideration.

Game VR/AR Track

Advisors are soliciting submissions exploring virtual, augmented and mixed reality in game development, pertaining to topics across multiple disciplines including Design, Production, Programming, and Visual Art. Submissions should be representative of interesting and current work happening in VR/AR/MR game development and have valuable, actionable and/or inspiring takeaways for the VRDC@GDC audience.

Entertainment VR/AR Track

Virtual, augmented and mixed reality is about so much more than just games. For the Entertainment VR/AR Track, advisors are soliciting submissions spanning VR/AR/MR application, design, implementation and development across multiple industries including Entertainment, Travel, Retail, Fitness, Product Design, Journalism, Sports Entertainment. If you're developing an immersive VR, AR, or MR experience or application that goes beyond games, we want to hear about it!

So if you want to speak at VRDC @ GDC 2018, click here! For more details on the submission process or GDC 2018 in general visit the show's official website, or subscribe to regular updates via Facebook, Twitter, or RSS.
