So, tonight is going to be an interesting one. I have been given the opportunity to screen The Raid at the first annual Game Behind the Video Game conference put on through Rutgers University. I became aware of the conference by following the savvy folks over at the Terra Nova blog and am thrilled to have a chance to contribute to their efforts in cultivating discussion on the issues that face the culture/business of gaming. Greg Lastowka, co-founder and author at Terra Nova, will be delivering the keynote speech tonight and a viewing of the film will follow shortly after. I'll do my best to take some pics and maybe even grab audio of the keynote for those that are interested.

It went great! Sorry for the late follow-up. I ended up having to video shoot a whole wedding yesterday and was running around like crazy.

The reception of the film was very positive and encouraging. It was definitely an honor to be in the company of such accomplished thinkers and contributors to the machine behind the world I care so much about. Very cool!

I have Greg's keynote recorded so I'll try to get that uploaded here soon and I'll post it in a comment.
