Abstract:
This course presents a publisher’s perspective on development opportunities related to the pursuit of new intellectual property, work for hire on existing portfolio needs, and possible acquisition off external, independent developers.
The course explores four key questions:
1. What are publishers looking for these days?
2. How does a small, independent developer get traction when risks are high and investment is scarce?
3. How does the publisher’s perspective change based on the genre and/or the region for product opportunities?
4. What is the best way to pitch a company and/or a product-development opportunity?
The course ends with a question-and-answer session.
Presented in cooperation with the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences.
