5 Conventions to Network
CES (Consumer Electronic Show) - Very good for networking in relation to technology. In one way for me as a 3D modeler if someone has a design and they need a 3D Artist to model and render their design I can be the one to oblige them.
Comic Con - A convention where I can discuss designs and character concepts with other artists. It could give me great insight in different techniques on concept characters. As well as employing their skills for designs in a video game.
Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) - The main convention to get information about upcoming video games and discuss the latest technology used to make said video games. It is especially great in networking where I can get information from designers from the industry and possibly do work with them.
LVL Up Expo - Great convention where there are gaming tournaments from Console, table top, and PC. I see it as an opportunity to connect with other gamers, because there is guaranteed to be a handful who are video game designers.
Global Gaming Expo (G2E) - Since I am in a gambling city, it would be wise to connect with designers in the Casino Gaming industry, to cover my bases.
