A little video about us:
Thanks to Startup TRD we were able to put a little film together from one of our workshops and from our pitch event earlier this year. We’re really pleased with it! Thanks to Fotograf Wittrup for putting this together!
Creative Leadership workshop
In collaboration with Mid Nordic Visual Lab, we are hosting a workshop on creative leadership with Lee Petty, Game Director of Keeper at Double Fine. We asked Petty to put together a hands-on workshop where he can work with the regional game studios on tools and tips on how to share and sell creative ideas when they are still being developed.
