Here’s a nice coverage on SIGGRAPH 2007 by Kelly Murdock at GameDev.net. Having missed half of the things showcased at the Emerging Technologies, he filled in a lot of the gaps. He also summarizes the key note speech by Glenn Entis, Senior VP of EA, which I was there for.

Day 6 & The End of SIGG 07
Okay so this update is a few days late. SIGGRAPH 2007 is over since last Thursday night and I’m back home in Toronto, but just to finish off what I started…
Job Fair:
I spent about an hour or so of the morning of the last day at the job fair. There were surprisingly a [...]
Day 4 & 5 @ SIG07
Day 4:
I thought I had a shift today but it somehow disappeared - less work for me, yay. I went to the Mobile3D course in the afternoon and the talk wasn’t as interesting as I thought it would be. They were talking about M3G and how to use it - things which I [...]
Day 3 @ SIG07
Day 3 was long but tons of fun at the end.
7:30am - 12pm: worked registration shift again. A line up during opening but after that people came in a steady stream of groups of 3-4. Not as busy as I thought. The extra line up fences were redundant.

Having not flown on a place in over twenty years, I was [...]

I’ve packed up more or less all of my stuff that I’m bringing on to the plane. It’s almost 3am now and I haven’t slept since yesterday morning. Ideally I should get some rest before we head off in about an hour or two but I’m so excited (or ’stoked’ seems to be [...]
Planning for SIGGRAPH 07
Next week is going to be intense when I head down to San Diego for SIGGRAPH. There’s gonna be tons of stuff to do and I already see myself being deprived of sleep throughout the week. Here’s my schedule for next week, so far:
That schedule doesn’t include Saturday which me and David will [...]
I’m going to SIGGRAPH 2007!
A month from independence day today I’ll be heading to Pearson airport on my way to San Diego! I was one of the fortunate students who’ve been accepted to volunteer at this year’s SIGGRAPH being held at the San Diego Convention Center. My Chariot of Fire partner David was accepted too. I [...]
