Part One

Alejandro Ura – He’s been supported by many industries, and believes that engaging with players over possible ideas is a definite thing to do as kids are likely to give feedback and other ideas. Ura says to associate with kids to understand the marketing/publishing audience. He is involved in sports tournaments for SXSW Gaming. Being a beginner is okay, so long as you keep trying and keep going. While passion is mostly involved with craft, it isn’t all you have to have, as you also need an understanding of your craft. Along with this, is the importance of immersion and iteration: the ability to immerse yourself within your audience and empathize with other gamers to understand them, and the ability to build a lot of different things all the time.

Anthony Zubia – With student life, he participated in wall art and graphic events internships, learning advertising and that there is no method of creativity. He has done multiple freelance work, campaigns emphasized. He worked the majority of his time with ads to raise awareness for testicular cancer, creating shirts, posters, and designing race cars. Zubia is able to maintain his freelance work by joining online things to share and sell his work, which helps bring extra money in.

Edith Valle – Valle’s life tremendously influences her work, as she grew up in a traditional Mexican family, yet by going to a typical American school and learning both customs, she feels caught between two worlds. She learned more about her own culture through art and design, and from this moved into a more digital space. At first, Valle began making concert posters and internshipped, which allowed her to learn and improve her skills much faster. When she went to Mexico, she focused on the colors of it, and as such designed and made her own wall since she was too worried about painting on an “official” wall. Valle works now mostly on the Risograph, creating the art to go with the poem books written by other students. Along with this, Valle worked on a t-shirt line with people to promote educational awareness on body positivity, immigration, and environmental dangers.
