There is a one day lecture planned for Adelaide (January 14, 2003), and Melbourne (January 18, 2003) that's definately aimed for the game artist.
"U.S. author and animator Michele Bousquet is coming to Adelaide and Melbourne, Australia in January 2003 to present a one-day class in each city in the essentials of low-poly modeling and animation. This class will focus on the tools you need to know to create and animate characters quickly and easily. Some models are easier to animate than others: this class will cover how to create models that are easy to skin and animate, avoiding difficulties with hips and shoulders that are so common with low-poly models. You'll also learn to model low-poly clothing, faces and hair with these same techniques."
It'll set you back $450, but you do get a book with that. To find out more, head on over to Maxunderground. I've placed the info in the forum as well.
