The Future of Innovative Studios: Team and Tools Behind Alan Wake

Speakers: Lasse Seppanen

Track: Production

Format: Lecture

Experience Level: Intermediate

Description: Our industry is rapidly changing to a distributed model. While this will create a great environment for innovation-based studios, successful studio structures of the future will have to differ radically from those of the past. Completely new ways of thinking about team and project management will be required.

This session discusses how Remedy's team structure, every-day tools, and processes are tailored to meet the challenge of Alan Wake - a project that is simultaneously breaking new ground in fresh game design, cinematic storytelling, and incredible technology. How do you manage a project like that, and still manage to sleep at night?
