  • Mapping the Canadian Video and Computer Game Industry
    Mapping the Canadian Video and Computer Game Industry Nick Dyer-Witheford [email protected] A talk for the “Digital Poetics and Politics” Summer Institute, Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, Aug 4, 2004 1 Introduction Invented in the 1970s as the whimsical creation of bored Pentagon researchers, video and computer games have over thirty years exploded into the fastest growing of advanced capitalism’s cultural industries. Global revenues soared to a record US$30 billion in 2002 (Snider, 2003), exceeding Hollywood’s box-office receipts. Lara Croft, Pokemon, Counterstrike, Halo and Everquest are icons of popular entertainment in the US, Europe, Japan, and, increasingly, around the planet. This paper—a preliminary report on a three-year SSHRC funded study—describes the Canadian digital play industry, some controversies that attend it and some opportunities for constructive policy intervention. First, however, a quick overview of how the industry works. How Play Works Video games are played on a dedicated “console,” like Sony’s PlayStation 2 or Microsoft’s Xbox, connected to a television, or on a portable “hand-held” device, like Nintendo’s Game Boy. Computer games are played on a personal computer (PC). There is also a burgeoning field of wireless and cell phone games. Irrespective of platform, digital game production has four core activities: development, publishing, distribution and licensing. Development--the design of game software-- is the industry’s wellspring. No longer the domain of lone-wolf developers, making a commercial game is today a lengthy, costly, and cooperative venture; lasts twelve months to three years, costs $2 to 6 million, and requires 20 to 100 people.

  • Skydance Media Partners with Award-Winning Interactive Director Amy Hennig
    SKYDANCE MEDIA PARTNERS WITH AWARD-WINNING INTERACTIVE DIRECTOR AMY HENNIG Santa Monica, CA – November 18, 2019 – Skydance Media has tapped award-winning creative director Amy Hennig (Uncharted) and her executive producer partner Julian Beak to form a new division to shape the future of interactive media. Designed to reach gamers and non-gamers alike on emerging streaming platforms, new story-focused experiences – crafted as an interactive series – will employ state-of-the-art computer graphics to provide the visual fidelity of television and film, but with an active, lean-in experience that puts the audience in the driver’s seat. Hennig and Beak will establish and build a team based in the San Francisco Bay Area and will maintain offices at Skydance Media’s Santa Monica headquarters. A game industry veteran with more than 30 years of experience, Hennig was recently honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award at 2019’s Game Developers Choice Awards and was presented with the 2016 BAFTA Special Award in recognition of her outstanding contribution to the video game industry. “The interactive media landscape is continually changing and Amy and Julian are creative and visionary leaders of this evolution,” said David Ellison, CEO Skydance Media. “Together, we will create within this new sphere the same type of event-level entertainment experiences that Skydance is known for in features and television.” “Julian and I are thrilled to be part of the Skydance creative team and excited to partner with Skydance to explore this new frontier in entertainment while pioneering new ways to tell immersive stories through technology,” said Hennig.
