A Warm Welcome!

Welcome to the new Amber Glass Broadcast website: the home of the Amber Glass Broadcast group. If you've previously been made aware about us and our activities, fantastic! If not, this post will outline who we are, what we aim to achieve and how we aim to achieve these goals in order to deliver entertaining publications for our biggest client: you, the audience.



Who we are


Amber Glass Broadcast is a student-created, student-led and student-operated broadcasting group based in the heart of arguably the hub of Scotland's gaming industry: Dundee. Starting in November 2011, our team have iterated and regressed ideas and concepts of broadcasting and media, and we are now prepared to provide an informative and iconoclastic source of information for your viewing. With an exceptionally-expanding number of game development companies and teams within Scotland, we aim to provide the Scottish Games Community - and you - a platform for information and advertisement.


What we do


The bulk of our publications will be through a weekly podcast, recorded and edited from Friday mornings through to its release on Saturday evenings. The aims of the podcast is to inform you with news and events that have currently taken place, mainly within the Scottish Games Community (although we will also cover relevants events in the wider industry). 

On top of this, we have our blog set up (if you're reading this, you'll most definitely be familiar with it by now) to provide written content throughout the week, in case you can't wait until the weekend to listen to the podcast! 

We are actively seeking to interview local developers and industry figures whenever we can as part of our aims to inform the audience as much as possible about the local industry. 

Finally, we have a few future projects in the works out-with news and information for those who are looking for a bit of fun. 

Hopefully, you'll be keeping your eyes and ears open for these, as we may be looking for your involvement!


What you do


Our main aim is to have as much public involvement as we can. Whether it be actively taking part in discussions and opinions that we pose, spreading the good news about our works (without knocking on doors clad in black suits), or submit any works you have done for us (whether it be games you've made, or art you'd like us to show), we want you involved in Amber Glass Broadcast as much as we are.

So, how do you get in contact with us? You can contact us through our social media sites (Facebook and Twitter), send us a message on our YouTube channel, or drop us an e-mail with any queries, work, suggestions and feedback you may have.

Regardless of the request, don't worry: we don't bite!


Additional Thoughts


Hopefully, you are now more aware of who we are and what we aim to do. We hope that you enjoy the content that we provide, and we will continue to better ourselves to make sure we are delivering the most entertaining and informative publications we can. At the end of the day, you are our critics, and you influence how we will work.
