Gamayo

As well as applying for freelance work and studio positions, it is also imperative that I join certain organisations in order to keep up to date with conferences, networking events and the occasional job offer. The first organization I looked into is called GAMAYO.

GAMAYO (Game Makers, Yorkshire) is an informal network of people that make videogames in and around Yorkshire. This organisation is for my wish to enter the games industry, but also with my plan to create my own game with three of my friends I will be included in that category of game makers in Yorkshire. This would mean having a new form of branding ourselves such as a small games company.

That is the only issue with this organization is that you have to be releasing games in order to join, one cannot just simply be on a games related course. But this is for a future opportunity.
