2007 Austin GDC Opens Attendee Registration

The CMP Game Group has announced that attendee registration is now open for the recently announced 2007 Austin Game Developers Conference, which will take place September 5-7, 2007 at the Austin Convention Center in Austin, Texas. The event, which CMP acquired from The Game Initiative in October 2006, will utilize the same same dates, location, and advisory board of previous Austin Game Conferences, and offer four distinct conference tracks. The event's organizers recently issued a call for submissions, which will be accepted until Monday, April 30, 2007. The four tracks, loosely modeled after the successful elements of previous Austin Game Conferences, will be dedicated to online games, audio for games, writing for games and a new People's Choice track featuring the sessions community members want to see most. In addition to the four main tracks, Austin GDC will also feature a Game Career Seminar for students and job-changers researching entry into the game industry, and a Career Fair for experienced game developers seeking new job opportunities. Session content, speaker guidelines, registration information, and sales opportunities for the conference can be found by visiting the official Austin Game Developers Conference website.
