I would firstly like to say a huge thank you to WiG for making all this happen.
My first entry is just going to be a brief introductory post so everyone can know a little about me and how I was introduced to WiG.
My name is Catherine Woolley, I went to the University of Wales, Newportand received a 1st class honours in Computer Games Design, as Emma has previously mentioned.
I was a volunteer at WiG 2007when it was conveniently hosted at Newport, which is where I became acquainted with Emma.
For those that attended you may remember these:
I made them with my twin sister Charlotte Woolley every night before the conference, which was heaps of fun, and a real challenge at the same time.
I am currently applying for jobs in the games industry, but while I’m not doing that I’m working on an Unreal Tournament III mod called Void and a small Game Maker game called Lash La Rue on Holiday featuring Juan the duck which is a product of myself, my sister and her boyfriend. It was our entry for the Global Game Jam back in January.
Other than all that I have a huge passion for games, and hope to one day have more input on the development of them.
There should also be a WiG networking session happening at Develop, so keep your eyes peeled for more details!
