    Also, that bird sings so sweetly in your masthead! It’s the tiny details that achieve greatness!

    Wow, I’m so inspired by your creative energy! The pacing of the show was smooth and it looks like you worked hard on pre-production. And I learned alot! Thanks!

    David,
    I’m still not very clear about what Minor Studios is. It looks like it’s all about you and your solo project. Is it? Why did you decide to create Minor Studios? As a creative director, how many designers and developers are you overseeing?

    Thanks everyone!

    Robert - I’m working with a talented team of artists and developers, who we’ll hopefully introduce you to here in the months ahead. The idea behind Minor Studios is to create and tell interesting interactive stories - which is deliberately broad for now.

    Question for a next month: what should I wear for an interview (lets make some comparison table for advertisment agency / small web company)?

    Strange to cover such a wide variety of topics in one tutorial, but it works nicely. Thanks for the info!

    Aside from the music and sound design aspect of gaming I’ve never been interested in game design, but I found this show to be very interesting and informative. It made think about process flow in my own field of interest and ways I might rethink the way I get my work done, and of course, that’s priceless! Loved it.
