Can I get into the video game business with no programming skills?
Posted by: | CommentsI am pretty damn good at communicating with people. I can get my ideas across and I can convince others through rhetoric that what I am saying is a good idea. Of course I need to refine it even further, but I believe that at the present it is at a high level. I am a college freshman.
I also think that my writing abilities are not too shabby. I play a lot of video games and I have a good grasp of the product as a customer. I have a passion for video games and I enjoy reading and learning about how they are made.
What I can not exactly figure out is can I get into the business with no programming skills? I have tried programming and I can honestly say that a mouse in a coma can probably do it better.
I am a creative individual with good communication skills and a passion for bringing up ideas for the improvement of video games.
I can not draw either.
However I can easily get people excited over something.
I also do not mind writing so I hope there is something I can do with that.
You can be a PR person. Go to E3, get people all exciting about a game. You could be like Reggie Fils-Aime. He knows squat about programming, but he sure knows how to get people excited about a so-so product like the Wii.
You can also be a game artist or designer. You’ll be responsible for creating the character’s looks or designing levels for games.

my favorite installation::::this video is taken from the website of the creatores of LISTENING POST
Mark Hansen and Ben Rubin
Listening Post is an art installation that culls text fragments in real time from thousands of unrestricted Internet chat rooms, bulletin boards and other public forums. The texts are read (or sung) by a voice synthesizer, and simultaneously displayed across a suspended grid of more than two hundred small electronic screens.
Listening Post cycles through a series of six movements, each a different arrangement of visual, aural, and musical elements, each with it’s own data processing logic.
Dissociating the communication from its conventional on-screen presence, Listening Post is a visual and sonic response to the content, magnitude, and immediacy of virtual communication.

Are underdeveloped communication skills holding YOU back?
One of the biggest mistakes we make each day at work and in our homes is to under estimate the power of communication.

This training program shows us how our daily communication skills can dramatically propel us to new levels of success. You’ll get an inside-out look at the two basic categories of communication: Internal – the voice within, and Interpersonal – listening and dealing with others. Each category is explored in detail to help advance your understanding of how to create effective communication.

How can strong communication skills improve relationships?
Posted by: | Comments
I think communication is VERY important in a relationship.
Being able to talk to each other, whether it’s important or trivial, or even if it’s just about the weather.
I think it improves it because you can be open and honest with each other.
You can have a laugh, and help each other out.

How to improve my communication skills?
Posted by: | CommentsI often hear that I’m shy but that is because I really don’t like hearing my voice. Its low (not that low but still noticeable) and tend to mumble. Is there a way to change your voice to improve speaking or is there some speaking style perffered among the years of other. Overall I’m just asking how to improve talking to other people so they can understand you?
Well you can take a class or you can just start taking chances outside your comfert zone that is what I did because I used to be really she and even mumble and at times I still do. it does not make you a bad person or any thing you just need to find what works best even if it is trying both approaches to your situation.
