GBAn incredible 6-week course on Game Writing You'd be surprised in what you can learn in 6 weeks from an instructor's lessons as well as class assignments in which feedback is given. I recently took the Game Writing Course with Adam Dolin where we covered and honed in on topics relevant to game writing in the industry. The course is well-paced and the resources given are quite plentiful both during the lesson and on the slides. The assignments were challenging if you were new to a particular concept (ie screenwriting) but not only was there value in the exercise, there was great value in getting feedback from professionals. (Shoutout to the incredible writer & TA for this class Alex Blum who was both encouraging and constructive in his feedback!) Also, while getting a 1:1 chance to meet with an instructor was incredbile, it was such a hard choice to pick and I know that plenty of students wished to meet with both Adam and Alex! One last thing, depending on your classmates' schedules and openness, this class will unlock an incredible community of writers that are open to collaboration, feedback, and workshopping/brainstorming together! Overall, this course was incredible and if there was a more advanced or even more focused class on game writing (character building or worldbuilding as a topic etc.), I would sign up in a heartbeat!

GBI completed the Game Writer course with Adam Dolin Adam was a fantastic instructor. He was knowledgeable about the subject matter, but also humble in his teaching, making him easy to connect with and learn from. The ELVTR staff were excellent and always there when we needed them.

GBThe Creative Director Course with Jon… The Creative Director Course with Jon Elsom@McCann was fantastic. There were great guest speakers and you got a real insight into the world of CDs in the advertising industry. The content was fantastic, and Jon and his colleagues were very generous with their time. I would highly recommend the course to any aspiring Creative Directors.

GBI completed the UX/UI Design for Gaming… I completed the UX/UI Design for Gaming for gaming course at ELVTR. It was a great opportunity to work directly with Ivy, she has a lot knowledge on the industry and on the UX/UI practices. Ivy did an amazing job explaining the concepts, and the team provided constructive feedback on each assignment to further improve my skills. Overall a great experience, I would recommend the course to anyone interested in starting out on the UX/UI Design for gaming industry, like myself. There is a lot of information to be learned and the course provides just that! More so, learning from someone who works in the industry gives you a great insight on how everything works.

GBI was not prepared for how… I was not prepared for how professional, how supportive and genuine my instructors Adam and Alex would be for my game narrative course (Sabina you are our biggest cheerleader too and we all thank you for that.) I never would've guessed this class was as new as it was for how informative, helpful and resourceful it was. ELVTR makes sure you not only feel safe to learn to create, but pushes you with a community driven approach that felt it worked better than a lot of college courses I've taken.
