Game Design Schools
Have you ever thought about what it takes to create a computer or video game? First, you have to develop a concept. Then think about the characters, and how they interact. Then, think about the story the game is trying to tell, how players score points, and how the video game can be won. And that's before you've started the technical details of animating the game. Game design schools teach not only the technical side of computerized animation, but the design and creative skills needed to make a game a success.
