Bangkok International Film Festival 2006

As I written earlier in my blog, I'm currently a volunteer of the International Game Developer Association - Bangkok Chapter and I'm currently the coordinator of a booth that showcases a number of game developed in Thailand that is shown in the Bangkok Film Market(BFM) at the Bangkok International Film Festival 2006(BIFF2006). As the game and movie industry are related industries, it is a good idea to be present to raise the profile of local game developers by showcasing the development projects from a number of different developers in the international setting of the BIFF2006. Since we are being non-partisan, we had a number of volunteers contact nearly all the development companies and indie projects in Thailand regarding submitting video demos of their latest products in a fixed format that would be combined to the ThaiGame Reel to showcase the latest games developed in Thailand. Since IGDA is a non-profit developer association, we do not endorse any companies, products, and tools, and we serve mostly more as an informal information center - any contacts would be forwarded directly to the associated companies.

Below are just a few pictures from in front of the Bangkok Film Market.







Since we have been invited by TAMMA (Thailand Animation and Multimedia Association) we have shared our booth with them. As noted below are some pictures from the booth which is highlighted by Ramayana an epic animation in the pre-production stages.









In this fair I would like to thank you Phot, A, Un, Dear, Rut, and Tuang for helping manage the booth with me.
