SUMMARY:SketchClub Online
DESCRIPTION:The IGDA Game Art SIG warmly invites you to SketchClub Online—a FREE (roughly) bi-weekly event kindly sponsored by SAE Institute Zurich and hosted by author and designer Chris Solarski with the purpose of exploring traditional and contemporary approaches to figure sketching and character design. Attendees are encouraged to participate in artistic challenges prescribed for each each session\, for which Chris is on hand to offer advice and support. Although the SketchClub can also be used as an informal online meet-up where participants are free to work on personal projects while discussing all character\, art-design and career-related topics. All skill levels are welcome\, from complete beginners to advanced\, and there are no restrictions on which media is used (i.e. pencil/paper\, Photoshop\, Procreate\, etc.). SketchClub has a “drop-in” format\, so participants needn’t attend every session and can arrive late/leave early—ideally with minimum disturbance to the group. \nThe SketchClub occurs roughly every second Friday\, and these are the confirmed dates so far (5:30 – 8:30 pm Central European Time). A Zoom link is published in the ‘upcoming_events’ channel of the IGDA Game Art SIG’s Discord server on the day of each event. We look forward to seeing you!

SUMMARY:Women Game Jam
DESCRIPTION:Women Game Jam (WGJ) reaches its 5th edition and\, after the success of 2020\, which had more than 1000 participants and 100 games published\, from 14 countries\, the 2021 edition will be the first step towards the future – hybrid events. There will be some in-person sites in Australian cities (Sydney\, Melbourne and Western Australia)\, and it will continue online in other countries. The event will take place from the 20 – 22 August\, 2021\, and will have cycles of lectures\, panels\, workshops entirely online. \nA “game jam” is a game development marathon where the participants are challenged to plan and create a digital or analog game using the theme proposed in the first day of the event. All in a certain amount of time! \nThe difference is that Women Game Jam focuses on women cis\, trans and non-binary people and is a non-competitive event. This creates a more comfortable and encouraging environment to learn\, create a portfolio\, exchange of experiences between beginners and experienced in the field\, and more important\, to fortify the local female development community. \nRegistration is offered in English\, Portuguese\, and Spanish – for more info\, visit the website!
