The First Year of Media Molecule
Speakers: Alex Evans, Mark Healey
Track: Production
Format: Lecture
Experience Level: All
Description: Media Molecule is a new independent studio, working on an unannounced game exclusively for PS3. The central theme of this talk is how Media Molecule has bridged the apparent contradiction between maintaining a lean team while maintaining a very high ambition. Founders Alex Evans and Mark Healey look at how they have taken the studio from its starting point of four friends who decided to make a game to, just over a year on, a thriving developer that is on track to deliver its first full price game. Lessons learnt from starting up a new studio in the current game development market are shared - from Production, Design and Technical points of view.
Idea Takeaway: Attendees will be shown one possible approach to making an AAA game, without becoming bloated, and a new perspective on the current game development market.
Intended Audience: Everyone.
