Game development education in Russia
Until recently education, which would prepare specialists for game development in Russia was not simple. All the specialists were grown in the projects. But now it seems the situation has moved from a dead point. Appeared compact courses and even comprehensive training program.I know of three places where you can go learning: Real Time (http://www.realtime.ru/), Scream School (http://screamschool.ru/) and VLBI (http://hsbi.hse.ru/programs/).
By the way, in early September, in SS and in WSBI held open days. I visited only WSBI articulated approach to learning looks quite professional (it's a good theory, the creation of real projects in the learning process, teachers). From the previous thread some of the students quite well settled in big companies and started their own start-UPS. Also know that SS is taught by renowned industry experts.
If interested in the topic of game development in VLBI planned the event, which, in my opinion, would be worth a visit. On 15 October, in Moscow, in the building of WSBI Higher school of Economics will host an open master class on developing and operating games. Promise to tell about how the software companies, to show how looks the game industry in figures. The unit will also be practical case studies for the balance of the game.

I wonder who and what he thinks about education in the field of game development? Do I need it?
And what available space is still there?
Offtopic, but if you need sensible courses for game development on Unity in Minsk, you road to Stormnet http://www.it-courses.by/courses/2d-game-development-unity/
What experts? What training geymdevu? This is a congenital.
I love to play games, my dream since childhood to make a game, make the game when there's an opportunity.
Then such of the game you need to collect the team and saw the game.
In Russia, even 2D games are made.
There are examples when foreign countries one person was doing a good 2D game and programmed the game and drew some more and write music. Or if you have money, attracted from the specialist of their region.
Updated through the week: In Russia, too, there are examples of good 2D games. Was the game Super Cyborg. And I also remember The friends of Ringo Ishikawa, but I have not played, can not estimate.
I think 10-15 years of academic education gamedev even there, some institutions will not be in demand and will wild the labour market where it will ask you - and you finally can anyone? what you can do?
and after the lapse of these many years if you get gamedev overall game design, without experience in the specialty with portfela say that is not true of the Pitch obrazovaniia
