The gaming market continues to grow at an ever-increasing rate. Mobile games, which are the specialty of other countries, now account for the majority of sales, overtaking home game consoles, which is Japan’s specialty. With the rapid development of overseas game companies, many creators may be aiming to be active globally. However, there may not be many people who can imagine specifically what it would be like to work overseas. Therefore, C&R invites creators working at overseas game companies to give lectures on the work environment overseas, communication with members, differences from Japanese companies, and the possibility of finding employment or changing jobs to overseas companies. We are holding a seminar series where we will discuss these points from an on-site perspective.
This is our second time, and we will continue to welcome Kaori Furusawa, a 3D character artist who has traveled overseas to Stockholm, Singapore, and Toronto, as a lecturer.We will discuss immigration and the differences between Japanese and overseas workplaces. The talk will focus on topics such as culture gaps, skills needed overseas, etc. Let’s learn together about the latest trends in the global gaming market and careers overseas. We look forward to your participation.
