8842. Writing for Tabletop Role Playing Games
Moderator: Lauren Cipollo
Creating a project for an interactive or collaborative engagement is very different from writing a novel or screenplay. What's the difference between writing for board games versus role-playing games? How do you know when a game is "done"? How do you write when you don't have full control of your narrative? What's important to keep and what can you let go?
Lauren Cipollo, Matt Conant, Jenni Powell, Anne Toole, Erin Hunt Rado
SAT 11:30 am - 12:45 pm, Los Angeles B
8682. Cross-Platform Projects: Adapting from Books to Film to Games and Back Again
Moderator: Matt Conant
Translating your story across medium can be tricky, which is why so many book-to-film adaptations feel poorly conceived. But when done well, you get Lord of the Rings, The Expanse, Fallout, or countless others. Join us to discuss the differences in writing for different media, how to adapt one to the next, even which one is best for your specific project. Or learn how to craft a universe that spans the worlds of cinema, publishing, and interactive media.
Lauren Cipollo, Matt Conant, Jenni Powell, Arthur Sellers, Joelle Sellner, Anne Toole
SAT 1:00 pm - 2:15 pm, La Jolla B
