August 3, 2018
Hey game makers, GDC 2019 organizers are still accepting submissions to present lectures, roundtables, panels, posters and tutorials through Thursday, August 16th!
Specifically, they're looking for experienced producers who have shipped games or managed live games to share (in the form of talks on the Production & Team Management track) their best techniques or experiences which helps them produce better games or build better teams.
Next year the show -- the 33nd edition of GDC -- will take place March 18-22 at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco, California. It will once again play host to thousands of game developers from all around the world for a week of learning, networking and inspiration.
As it continues to come together, organizers want to make sure you don't miss out on your opportunity to pitch talks that would be a good fit on the GDC 2018 Prodution & Team Management track. Here's some guidance on what organizers are looking to see in a great talk submission:
We are financing/genre/platform/business model agnostic - we just want the world's best producers to share their knowledge. We are looking for case studies from everyone! Huge, tiny, startup, established: AAA console developers, indie developers, mobile teams, cross-platform teams, service teams, etc.
A few project case topics the Production & Team Management Track is looking for, but not limited to, are the following topics:
