Faces of the GamesIndustry, a photograph gallery of gaming's influential members, debuts at the London Game Festival 2007.

Game website network Eurogamer has announced Faces of the GamesIndustry [http://facesofthe.gamesindustry.biz/], a photographic event in association with One Big Game, Lincoln Beasley PR and the London Games Career Fair. The Faces of the GamesIndustry award is comprised of 10 people that influenced events in the gaming world that year. While the line-up for the inaugural exhibition is the personal pick of photographer and Eurogamer Network publisher Patrick Garratt, voting for the 2008 show will be opened to voters at the fair.

The convention will run during the London Games Career Fair, part of London Game Festival 2007, at Old Truman Brewery, 91 Brick Lane, London, from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 23 and Wednesday, October 24.
