Yestaday was the game day at BAF 09. That is the Bradford Animation Festival.

It was really interesting to go see what industry professionals had to say, although it was a very long day and at one point I found myself drifting off when somebody came on about 'the future of gaming', as I didn't really see what point he was getting across. It was more like 'this is how things are' compared to 'this is how things will be', so didn't provide any new information. He just dressed up a few points about designing for technology and not pushing something which an audience isn't ready for with big words if you ask me.

What I was most excited for was the talk by Charles Cecil from Revolution. I'm a big Broken Sword fan, so I honestly felt a little awe stuck. I wanted to go over and say something to him and his fellow workers at the end, but honestly didn't know what to say. Better to be thought a fool by staying silient then to be confirmed one by opening my mouth, or something like that anyways lol.

A couple of the people we were supposed to see were cancelled, which was disapointing. But we still had Revolution and Blueberry Gardens Erik, so I saw what I most wanted to see.
