Background

About Scott McDaniel

Objective Prepare the next generation of professionals for the ins and outs of the gaming industry by introducing them to, and teaching them, the basic techniques and structures expected at gaming companies. After nearly twentyyears in the gaming industry I have seen the changes in landscape involved in many companies. Working in every aspect of company size from four person start up to 750 person global corporation has given me unique insight into not only how companies and production run, but also how technologies can be leveraged from complete improvisation to having a dedicated technical tools department of several people. I believe it is time to devote myself to teaching those that wish to practice the vocation of video game creation. My goals at this point are to: Become a college teacher of gaming theory and application, possibly continue making games, continue the sponsorship program for my racing team, continue with manageing MISSION G to worldwide stardom or move to Yuma and open a bingo parlor. I haven't decided yet. Specialties: Teaching, mentoring, Systems creation, team management, project management. My true talent is that I know what the public wants: And I deliver it. It's not arrogance if it's truth. I'm also fluent in Max, Maya, PShop, and a host of other software.
