Trainee In focus 02: Lauren Metcalf

Our Next Trainee in Focus looks at Lauren Metcalf, an aspiring Concept Artist and current ELAM Trainee on the Games Design Course. We had a talk with her in order to learn more about her world:

What do you do?

"I am a Games Design Trainee at ELAM and an aspiring artistic director. I can always be find drawing in my sketchbook when I'm free as it is my passion.  I spend most of my time gaming, drawing, coding and looking after my pet snake. I have learned a lot about programming whilst being at ELAM which has helped my overall game massively."

Why did you start Games Design?

"I started Games Design solely because of one game, Bastian, by Supergiant Games. It was so beautifully designed! The sole reason why this game got me into game design and the reason why I'm in ELAM today is due to the art. It caught my eye and inspired me to be where I am today."

What are your aspirations?

"My aspirations are to work in the gaming industry as a Concept Artist or Artistic Director. I want to make games that inspire others and make people happy. I believe games to be another world, a place to enjoy yourself and de-stress. To be the one who creates these worlds that people can immerse themselves in is a dream of mine and one that I am determined to make a reality."

“ELAM has surrounded me with the perfect facilities and people to excel in the Games Design Industry”

— Lauren Metcalf

The European Women in Games Conference 2017 paints a bright future for the industry

Our seventh annual conference earlier this month highlighted the key role women play in the European game industries as designers, makers, thinkers, educators, players and everything in between. 

The extra time afforded by the new two-day format allowed for more diverse subjects and speakers than ever before. We had panels on making and designing games, social media and personal branding, VR, business, HR and increased discussion about the educational pipeline. 

This was fitting, as our host was the wonderful East London Arts and Music – a progressive educator with a strong commitment to diversity – on the first day of its new academic year and its new games design course.
