The game industry is a bit of a mess right now and it’s hitting all of us, but when things get bad, they’re often toughest on marginalized folk.

So. @aiviwave.com and I are launching the Rising Star Patronage Project to support game composers & make great music!

#WhatAGameDevLooksLike is coming back to GDC next week for its SIXTH year! Last year I wrote about the challenges of mass layoffs, online harassment, and lack of funding, and #WhatAGameDevLooksLike was a little beacon of joy and celebration of how brilliant, diverse, and kind our industry can be.

In case you’re attending #GDC2025 and do not know about this; if you’re ever feeling unsafe, need assistance, or see something troubling, you can call this 24 hour hotline.

They will listen and assist however possible whether you’re at an official GDC event or simply in San Francisco for the event.

We could really use everyone’s help!

Just two weeks to GDC and we are still looking for donations or corporate sponsorship so we can give our scholarships more financial support. Please reach out if you are able to help, or share this donation link!

Let’s gooooo

GDC changed up how they awarded scholarships this year, so our donation drive timing is different, but we ARE still sending scholars to GDC!

#gameanimation #gamedev #animation

We could use more support for our scholars! This is an important time for diversity efforts. #animation #gameanimation #gamedev

For our first skeet or whatever, we'd really love to provide more financial support for our GDC scholar cohort this year- to kick it up a bit, the board will personally match up to $5000 in donations. Help us support the future of game dev animation- no donation is too small!

Hey Y'all, we are now on BlueSky!

ANIMATION DIVERSITY FOUNDATION GDC SCHOLARSHIP UPDATE

Hi all! Due to some unforeseen changes at GDC, it look longer than normal to verify that we would be able to offer our annual GDC Scholarship. The good news is, we can!
