Black Game Developers

[Chrishaune]

I haven't really been in the game industry, but I have been in the computer simulation/modeling field for most of my time since I finished school back in 2005. I kind of got a clue that that video game side wasn't for me early on, but there's a lot of work out there for just computer animation specialists in general. Did get a chance to attend E3 a few years back through my job. It's a wide open field, but beware there's not a lot of women in this field.
