WORKSHOPS

We organize workshops for game designers on different topics. For the Global Game Jam in Switzerland, we provide an extensive starter course each year. And for the international animation festival Fantoche in Baden, Switzerland, we provide a one-week workshop "Inbetween Animation and Games" every year since 2009 with great results. The GameLab also organized experimental workshops for Funny FItness Games. In 2015 and 16 we had three special development and production workshops for the game Swiss Mercenaries with a crew of 20-30 people. In 2019 we had a workshop in the Immersive Arts Space that focuesd on Motion capturing and augmented reality and was open to the whole ZHdK. We also had extensive workshops for research in serious games for games@museums, foodscape and the BLS. Several of the resultung works have been exhibited in museums. In 2020 we had a workshop with Sunrise on clicker games and a workshop with the National Museum about Warja Lavater's artworks. In 2021 we had a workshop for Quantum Computer games with IBM. 2022 and 2023 we organized other yearly workshops at Fantoche. Also in 2023, there was a workshop on "Games in Movement" that took place in the Immersive Arts Space of ZHdK, where participants could experiment with augmented and virtual technology. And a lot more is to come.
