妇女历史月快乐!
Happy Women’s History Month!
为了继续秉承指导下一代游戏开发者的承诺,我们非常高兴地宣布,水晶动力将连续第三年在我们的圣马特奥和贝尔维尤工作室举办“女孩制作游戏”夏令营。
Continuing our commitment to mentoring the next generation of game developers, we’re thrilled to announce that Crystal Dynamics will be hosting Girls Make Games summer camps at our San Mateo and Bellevue studios for a third year in a row.
“女孩制作游戏”是一系列旨在激发下一代设计师、创作者和工程师灵感的夏令营、研讨会和游戏开发活动。自2014年启动以来,该项目已通过研讨会和夏令营惠及7200名女孩,另有超过25000人通过教程、游戏和资源参与其中。
Girls Make Games is a series of summer camps, workshops and game jams designed to inspire the next generation of designers, creators, and engineers. Launched in 2014, the program has reached 7,200 girls through workshops and camps, and over 25,000 through tutorials, games and resources.
为期三周的夏令营结束时,学生们组成的团队将展示可玩的游戏演示;这些演示给我们留下了深刻印象,也让我们确信游戏行业的未来一片光明。您可以在这里查看一些过去“演示日”的大奖得主。
At the end of the three-week camp, teams of students deliver and present playable game demos; all of which have left our teams impressed and assured us that the future of the game industry is bright. You can check out some of the past Demo Day grand prize winners here.
如今,“女孩制作游戏”已进入第11个年头,该项目又增加了一个新的拓展领域——501c3 GMG奖学金基金,为有志于上大学的学生以及需要夏令营学费资助的学生家庭提供经济援助。
Now in their 11th year, Girls Make Games has added another outreach arm to their programming - the 501c3 GMG Scholarship Fund offering financial aid to aspiring college students and to students whose families need assistance with their summer camp tuition.
“和许多其他事物一样,‘女孩制作游戏’的夏令营自新冠疫情以来也不得不做出调整,”“女孩制作游戏”的创始人兼首席执行官莱拉·沙比尔解释道。“我们的学生一直很喜欢在游戏工作室现场学习,但显然这在整个行业中都是一个挑战。我们非常感谢水晶动力公司的领导层和员工在今年7月第三次敞开大门,欢迎‘女孩制作游戏’的学生们!”
“Like much else, GMG camps have had to evolve since Covid," explained Laila Shabir, the founder and CEO of Girls Make Games. “Our students have always loved being onsite at game studios, but understandably that’s been a challenge across the industry. We’re immensely grateful to the leadership and employees at Crystal Dynamics for opening their doors and welcoming Girls Make Games students for the 3rd time this July!
“筹备一个夏令营需要幕后大量的努力,而与水晶动力公司的员工合作一直是一件令人愉快的事情,因为他们真正相信我们的使命,即创建一个更加包容的行业。”
“It takes a tremendous amount of effort behind the scenes to put a camp together, and it has always been a pleasure working with the employees at Crystal Dynamics who truly believe in our mission to create a more inclusive industry.
我个人非常期待每年夏令营结束后,能看到所有令人惊叹的《古墓丽影》劳拉·克劳馥粉丝艺术作品。”
Personally, I’m looking forward to seeing all of the amazing Lara Croft fan art that comes out of camp every year.”
我们也是!
We are too!
