PAGDIG: Portland Area Game Developer Interest Group

I’m not gushing with press release hyperbole here when I said we had an awesome social meeting last Thursday. We had 9 people in attendance, which is probably some kind of record for PAGDIG (certainly in the recent past! :)). There was a pretty strong diversity too, from a producer to developers to artists to students to a game journalist.

Pictures can be found on the photo gallery page.

Our October social meeting will take place at Old Town Pizza in downtown Portland, OR, at 7:30PM. We’re usually on the first floor near the northeast corner of the building (towards Davis and the river).

This is an event sponsored by 3DV:

Feeling lucky? We invite you to join in the celebration of the recently announced Maya 7 and Alias MotionBuilder 7 products. Come join Alias and 3DV as we take a look at powerful new features and tools that will help you tackle any project.

OMSI’s newly renovated, High-Tech Auditorium overlooking the Willamette River will be the location for this highly anticipated event. Mix, mingle, eat and drink….then be prepared for an outrageous show by two of the industries finest demo artists.

We’re all set up with a Wordpress blog now! Should be much improved. Some of the web site is still not built but we’ll get there.

In the mean time, the important info is that we had a great social meeting last month and the next one is scheduled for Thursday, October 13, 2005. We meet at the down stairs round tables in Old Town Pizza, at 7:30PM. (Check the calendar sidebar for more info.)

First test post for the new blog system.
