Realtime Roots
I'm fascinated by how teams do what they do in the real time space.
Whether it be small independent video game teams going it alone or large animation houses hand crafting every frame, each one of these creators has an interesting story to tell and a different approach to production through their tools and processes.
Realtime Roots is an excuse to pick their brains and tease out best practices so that we can all use them in our own work to become better creators. Whichever real time medium you might be in I hope you find something you can take away and use in your own creative endeavours.
