Kids with Cancer Society of Edmonton at BioWare (by bioware)

BioWare participated in the Kids with cancer Beaded Journey Gala this year and offered a “BioWare Experience” as an auction item.

The “BioWare Experience” provided the kids the opportunity to come into the BioWare studio for a tour and a lesson on how video games are made. The kids got to see level art, tech art, concept art, animation, audio, programming, QA and then got to have some hands on time with space combat for SWTOR.

 After lunch, the kids got to pick a character, and a name for that character from the Dragon Age universe. They were assigned scripts to do their voice over work.

 The kids then got to paint textures for a 3D character using pencil crayons and paper which was later scanned in and assigned as a texture to the animated character.

At the end of the day, the kids were given a backpack full of SWAG and then a DVD showing their hard work.
