Game writing is dramatic writing. It borrows from the worlds of theater, movies, and TV. But what makes it exciting and weird is that the writer and the audience create the story together.
(If you’re wondering, “How does that even work?” this event is for you.)
In this event, you’ll learn:
- Why the player is NOT the most important character in a game’s story
- Why Christopher Nolan scripts are more like games than movies – and what that means for your work
- Where the jobs are, and how to find them (it’s easier than you may think!)
