How Video Games are Made

Crash, slash, bam, wam, clash go the video games, people are playing video games all over the world, they are so popular. I bet you want to know about these popular video games, so here we go.

First things first you need to know how video games are made. Here are the people who make the video games. First, there are the programmers who write the computer coding of the video games. What does it take to be a programmer? It takes a knowledge of physics to make the game look real. It takes the ability to program not only characters, but stuff like the camera views. Programmers must also be able to integrate the musical score and sound effects.

Video games also need designers. The designers are the people who create the entire game. What does it take to be a designer? Being a designer is harder than most people would think, it takes more than just having an idea for a game. The designer has to totally make every thing up, the characters and every thing and put them together to get a good, engaging experience that people really want. The designer has to know how much the computer knows and how much elements you can use and talk about it and achieve it with their team. Also, a designer has to be aware of the strengths and limitations a given platform has.

The third thing person that make the game are the musicians. The musicians are the people who make the music to the game. One thing about the musicians is that they get the most money out of all the another people who make the game. We will tell you later about the salary that the people who make the game get. It is really weird how the musicians get the most money out of all the people when there are so many people in the world that would want to be a musicians because they like music. Maybe it is because making music is hard.

The fourth person that makes the game are the artists. The artists are the people who make the drawing that the designer says. Being an artist takes the ability to do 3D worlds and animated characters. Artists have to have a very good foundation in drawing, painting, and anatomy. Also people will expect cool very cool drawing from the artist.

That is about all of the people who make the video games. The next thing you should know is about funding. Funding is how something gets payed. The developers, the programmer, the designer, and the artist, are one of the different people who make the game. The other people are the publishers who sell the game. Here is how funding works. The developers have an idea for the video game they want to make, then they tell a publisher. The publisher picks if he want to sell it or not, because he gets the money when it is sold and funds some of it to the developers and keeps the rest to make profit. But if the publisher doesn't get enough money from the video game he sells because it is not cool he will pay his money to the developers and then lose profit. So the publisher has to pick if he wants to sell it or not so he doesn't lose profit.

The final and last thing is the video game salary. The video game salary is how much diffrint people get for there money. programmer's first entering the making or with less than three years experience, you can get about fifty thousand a year. If you have between three and six years of doing it you can get sixty six thousand a year. If you have six years and up on making the game you get eighty eight thousand a year.

Lead Programmers make more money than just staring, but you will have more responsibilities. The entry level pay for a lead is about fifty six thousand a year. Once you have about three years under your belt you get about eighty three thousand a year. Once you have been making the games for over six years you will get over ninety thousand a year.

A video game designer that made games less than three years of experience will get about forty six thousand a year. With between three and six years of doing it get sixty five thousand five hundred a year. Once you have over six years of on the job of making the game you get about almost seventy thousand a year.
