My interview..!

In the first teaching week of my course at UCS we did a small paired task trying to understand each others tastes in art and culture. The purpose of this post will be to outline how I answered the question put in front of me.

_____________________________________________


1) What is the title of the book (fiction) you are currently reading (or the 
last fiction book you read)? 

When I was asked this question I tried to think back to the last time I read a fiction book. As it were, the last one I read was 'The Hunger Games'. I actually rather like this book so I will most probably eventually get through all three!

2) What is the title/topic of the book (non-fiction) you are currently 
reading (or the last non-fiction book you read)? 

This one was a lot more difficult because I genuinely don't remember ever reading a non-fiction book. I think the conversation about this question died out at this point - there wasn't much to talk about if i'm honest.

3) What is the last live performance (music, drama or dance) you attended?

Because i'm not all that into live performances I don't think I gave much of an answer to this simply because I had nothing that could count as an answer. Oh well.

4) What is the title of the last film you saw at the cinema / online or 
watched on DVD?

At the time, I think the last film I watched was in Athena Halls (my student accommodation) the day before my course started and that was Fast and Furious. Good film..

5) How often do you read a newspaper? (which one? online or physical?)

Google news. Okay? That's it.

6) Which art gallery / museum / exhibition did you last visit? 

I actually had an answer to this one. I went up London for a day with my good friend Nikki and me and her both went to the Science Museum up there. Always a nice place to go I think.

7) How many hours a week do you spend playing video games? 

Too many... But then, for an aspiring games designer is there such thing as too many gaming hours? Questionable. Still, I play on average about 5 hours a day give or take an hour. I suppose it depends on things like friends being available for playing and what games tickle my fancy.

8) How many hours a week do you spend playing games other than video 
games? 

Oh goodness so many hours... Oh no wait!! None. Literally no hours. I'm sorry.

So that was the interview I had with a fellow games designer. Interesting to say the least. If you read through all that, I thank you. There will be so many more posts to come in the next few years... EXPECT THEM!

  1. Hi Jamie,

    The question about the non-fiction book you last read or are currently reading is there to allow you to slip in a reference to any of the course-related books on things like games design or Actionscript that you might have read before the course, or have started recently.
