I AM ASKED FROM TIME TO TIME WHY THERE ISN'T MORE ABOUT GAME DEVELOPMENT IN MY EMAILS AND SO MUCH ABOUT FILM. I USUALLY RESPOND THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT EVERY FILM PROJECT ALSO INVOLVES EVERY OTHER DISCIPLINE AT THE COLLEGE BECAUSE VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING WE DO AT FLASHPOINT IS DONE AS TEAMS.
BUT THIS WEEK I ALSO HAVE A GREAT CHANCE TO RESPOND IN ANOTHER WAY BECAUSE THE CURRENT PRODUCTION IN ACTION PROJECT "OCTOBER SURPRISE" IS ACTUALLY ALL ABOUT THE FLASHPOINT FILM AND RECORDING ARTS STUDENTS MAKING MULTIPLE, ALTERNATIVE FILM ASSETS AND STORY VERSIONS WHICH WILL BE THE ACTUAL VIDEO CONTENT FOR SEVERAL INTERACTIVE GAMES OF VARYING COMPLEXITY (THESE ARE KNOWN AS THE "RED CARPET RESCUE" GAMES)TO BE BUILT BY THE FIRST AND SECOND YEAR GAME STUDENTS.
