been set up in collaboration with professional gamer Johnathan 'Fatal1ty' Wendel

classmates, the teens will learn to create
machinima
and build highlight video reels of their best in-game moves and shots.
The syllabus will also feature late-night Nvidia-hosted gaming tournaments
and Lan parties.
Students will also tour a major game development studio to learn first-hand
how industry professionals create commercial titles.
At the end of the course, each student will take home a Fatal1ty-branded
keyboard.

championships and 10 world titles.
