LSU video game design students today host a video-game marathon for their last day of class, which the students "attend" by way of high-definition video streaming broadcast from the University of Illinois-Chicago. LSU students and their Windy City counterparts will showcase original games they created, demonstrating skills and techniques learned during the course. The event begins today at 2 p.m. in Room 338 of Johnston Hall. The video game design course is among several initiatives by the LSU Center for Computation and Technology to establish a robust digital media industry in Louisiana. The effort includes the Red Stick International Animation Festival, held April 16-19. The festival draws well known animators, video game developers and other industry professionals to Baton Rouge each year.--Steve Clark
