Hamburg Games Conference geht in die neunte Runde

Am 5. April findet die Hamburg Games Conference 2018 statt. Unter dem Thema „Play it: The future of games & films“ wird's in diesem Jahr transmedial.

Seit 2010 findet die Hamburg Games Conference in den Räumlichkeiten der Bucerius Law School in der Jungiusstraße statt und hat sich mit ihrem vielfältigen Programm, ihren spannenden Themen und hochkarätigen Referenten einen festen Platz im Event-Kalender der Spieleindustrie verdient. Am 5. April geht die Konferenz in die neunte Runde und beschäftigt sich dabei mit dem zukunftsweisenden Thema Transmedia - dem Zusammenrücken von Film und Spiel, der Auflösung der Grenze zwischen Spieler und Zuschauer und der rasanten Entwicklung von Werkzeugen und Technologien der digitalen Medienproduktion.

Die Konferenz startet um 13 Uhr, folgende Referenten und Beiträge stehen bereits fest:

  • Christian Fonnesbech (Head of IP Development von Nordisk Film Games): "Less risk, more value: Create your IP for ALL media"
