LONDON 13th July - As part of Shine Week, the national festival to celebrate talent in children and young people, Electronic Arts and Shine hosted a videogaming masterclass to inspire Britain’s next generation of creative talent to consider a future career in the gaming industry. The masterclass took place in Pall Mall London 9th July where children from Berger Primary School, Hackney, and Lady Margaret School, Parson’s Green became gaming developers for the day and created their own levels on the latest game from Electronic Arts: Boom Blox Bash Party.

The BAFTA award winning game franchise Boom Blox, designed by Steven Spielberg provides editing tools for players to create their own levels and gives them a taste of what it’s like to be a games developer.

The development team for Boom Blox flew over from the EA Studio in Los Angeles to hold the masterclass and taught the lucky children an insight of what it’s like to be a games developer.
