The UPC School has put out a new call for its contest designed to boost talent among young video game enthusiasts and help them build a professional future in the entertainment industry.
The seventh edition of this contest includes four independent prizes in the category of games. The Best Video Game Award - Social Point, chosen by a jury, is open to all types of audiences and awards €3,000; the Best Mobile Video Game Award, worth €1,500; the Public Mention, which awards the most voted video game by the public, with an amount of €1,500; and the UPC Prize, which is aimed at all those groups of which at least half are or have been students of the UPC or from the UPC School. In the case of the UPC Prize, the amount is €1,500.
Proposals in the category of video games may be submitted until March 3, 2019. To register the project in this first phase is only necessary to present the basic data of the game and the components of the group; a small video with the different phases of the game and a descriptive document with the video game information. Of the projects presented, on March 14 will open the voting of the public. From this direct vote of the public will come the first prize: the Public Mention. The votes of the public and the assessment of a professional jury will result in the finalists, who will be announced on the website of upcvideogames.com on April 25, 2019.
On May 24 will be held the award ceremony 3HMA 2019. As in the last editions, it is expected that the event has as its central axis an international conference by an industry professional. This year will see José Antonio Escribano, AI Programmer at Guerrilla Games (Amsterdam, Holland). It will also be possible to visit the exhibition area of the finalist projects and to carry out networking with its creators.
