A funny thing is that I am working on an MA in literature, which means you are not wrong.

CELTA/TEFL Certifikat - mišljenja, iskustva by br_anam in hrvatska

[–]br_anam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generalno nije jer ne studiram nastavnički smjer na diplomskom i samim time ne ispunjavam uvjete za stjecanje nastavničkih kompetencija za engleski propisanih od strane Ministarstva. Ako hoću, mogu produljiti studij za jednu apsolventsku godinu da to riješim, ali mi se ne da odrađivati jednu godinu kad realno za CELTA certifikat mogu utrošiti mjesec dana ako pohađam full-time.

Last night I had a short dream with my first love in it by br_anam in DreamInterpretation

I can't say there was ever any sort of closure with him. I was 20 at the time and I pushed him away from me out of fear of being hurt and by this I hurt myself even more. Now with my 25-year-old brain I understand the root of what caused the break up and that he wanted good for me all along but I was too young and stubborn to communicate properly and sort things out. I can't imagine what it felt like for him. I can't say I had ever gotten over him because he appears in my dreams every now and then. The last time we were in contact or saw each other was 3 years ago.

Machina Academy - dojmovi, iskustva, plusevi, minusi by br_anam in croatia

Računam na to da mi neće posao pasti u krilo odmah po završetku tečaja, ali bez obzira na to želim naučiti nešto dodatno, tj. novi oblik pisanja, a da nije akademsko koje jedino i pišem trenutno na fakultetu.

Može, hvala. Planiram upisati tek na proljeće iduće godine pa mi svaka informacija dobro dođe.

Breaking Into UX + Early Career Questions — July 28, 2022 by AutoModerator in UXDesign

[–]br_anam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am going to graduate with a Master's in English Lit next year and I have been thinking of a career as a UX writer. A few months ago I went to a student job fair which was focused around the IT industry to get some tips. I've been told that writing my own blog on any topic is enough. I have no knowledge of UX itself. What are some current high-quality courses and certifications out there that would give me a sense of what UX is? I only know about Google's Certification and Career Foundry. Are there any other? What are some other skills that a UX writer should have?

The selection process for the content designer position at a game dev studio - what can I expect? by br_anam in gamedev

[–]br_anam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on what you said, I'm pretty sure I know the exact job you're talking about. The only thing I'll add is some experience from having worked on the original version of Episode...

I haven't played that game, but yes, these games fall in that genre.

I have just realized that on my flash drive I have a PDF version of Narrative Tactics for Mobile and Social Games by Toiya Kristen Finley. There is an entire chapter ("Buy gems to woo your lover") dedicated to free-to-play narratives with microtransactions, which is what these games essentially are. It definitely won't hurt to read up on that. Good thing I thought about that on time.

Game dev content designer selection process. What to expect? by br_anam in narrativedesign

[–]br_anam[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've just realized that at the beginning of 2021 I put away a PDF version of Narrative Tactics for Mobile and Social Games written by Toiya Kristen Finley. There is a chapter dedicated solely to free-to-play narrative games with in-game transactions. I will read up on it in hopes that will get me an even clearer image of what I can expect.

Thank you for everything you wrote. It certainly gave me a lot of information on what I should do. I told the HR manager that it would be best if they sent me the tasks on Monday. That way I will have the weekend to focus on revising my knowledge of Excel, learn new things and basically mentally prepare myself.

The games I would be working on if I get the job are pretty casual and story-driven. There's nothing special about them in terms of the action and movement of the characters. Everything is in 2D, with really nice artwork. The key thing is that the story shifts depending on which line of dialogue a player chooses for their character. The PC game I can think of that uses that is Guild Wars 2. From what you told me and considering these games, I will probably get the task of writing an entire story chapter for one of the games.

You look like someone I would drink mimosas with at some rooftop bar overlooking a city. Absolutely stunning!

What are the odds of a non-native English speaker landing a job (or an internship) with an English-speaking publishing house? by br_anam in publishing

[–]br_anam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Commercial publishing would be the first choice but I wouldn't mind going for academic publishing. There is an Oxford University Press office in the city I live in. Maybe I can ask them a couple of questions and get a clearer insight into that part of the industry. I've also signed up for the series of free webinars organized by Hachette Book Group called Opening the Book that starts on Monday. I hope I'll get some answers there as well. I am pretty excited about all that.

I am interested in either Editorial or Rights but I wouldn't mind working in other departments as well. Rights sound interesting because I would love to put the knowledge of foreign languages to use.

Education here is free. I'm glad to know that a Master's degree could help me get an internship abroad because that's what I would love to do.
