My passion is game design.
I discovered my passion for Game Design when I was still in elementary school. I loved playing video games and was fascinated about how one game looked different from another. I would play through a game multiple times and look at the different ideas and concepts that went into the levels. Drawing is also one of my favorite hobbies. I have been told I am great at art and have a lot of creative ideas. When I heard about Game Design, I saw that it had a combination of the things I really liked: video games, art, and a lot of other skills that involved creativity.
Attending iD Tech Camps SF Bay Area will help me pursue my passion for Game Design, because I can learn more about designing games. It will strengthen my coding skills and teach me how to work with designing concepts in games. I can also meet a lot of other students who have similar interests as I do and learn off of them and also teach them what I know. Interacting with others who have the same interests as me may also spark new, creative ideas that I can use in my game design path. Attending this would teach me how to create games and start my dream career of creating games.
Tony is an incredible candidate for the iD Tech Camps, both in how he'll contribute and what he'll gain. He is a quiet soul - not necessarily shy, but reserved. However, he is full of POWER. I think iD Tech Camps will empower him to use his skills and creativity, and give him the forum to speak up and share with others. I always look forward to Tony's presentations and debates - he is so thoughtful and critical-minded.. truly, I am always learning from him. Putting those skills into his passions of gaming, design, and tech-creativity will no doubt be a beautiful combination for Tony's development of self, for his peers, and teachers! He is a curious and ever-persistent kid - a dream for such an innovative program!
I met a lot of great and fun people during my time at iD Tech Camp. I learned a lot from them and made many friendships over there. Learning how to code really helped give me a start to a potential career in technology I could have in the future. Thanks to all the donors for making this possible.
