Learn to make PS3 games from gaming experts

Attention all aspiring game developers within the Hong Kong-Southeast Asia region, you have the chance to get schooled by some highly knowledgeable industry veterans. Sony Computer Entertainment Hong Kong (SCEH) and a company called Cyberport are jointly organizing Asia's first PS3 game production program outside of Japan, and it'll be dubbed "Digital Content Creation Camp."

Taking place in Hong Kong, the "camp" is aimed at enhancing techniques for both students and working professionals in game programming, design, production, and of course specifically on PlayStation 3 game development. Classes start on May 10, 2008 and will continue every Saturday after that for the next nine months. Lectures are taught by game experts from Premium Agency Inc. -- a CG animation production studio that has worked on games like Folklore, Genji: Days of the Blade, Shadow of the Colossus, and Killer7. All classes are taught in Japanese, but of course will have English translation.

There's still some time left to register if you're interested. You can register and find additional information at Cyberport's website.
