Thank you so much! I plan on doing more soon as well as a variety of other nerdy content :)

thank you so much! It's lovely to hear this is helpful to fellow ND's

I'm glad this was useful. Thank you for watching! :)

Thank you so much! I am planning on doing more. Just need more time to film and edit them :)

Hiya! So in my experience, narrative should work with the art team in some capacity, but a narrative/artist role that combines both doesn't really exist unless you're planning on starting your own team or working as a solo dev (I'm talking very small indie team 1-5 people). Reason being that both roles are usually full-time jobs that require constant attention, so having someone oversee both would not be fair on the individual and massively slow down development time. My advice would be perhaps start your own projects where you can do both or look at working for one of those roles full-time whilst exploring the other in a more personal capacity (working full time in narrative but working on art in your personal time or vice versa). Hope that helps!

Hi there! These tools can be used to write scripts for a game ☺️

It's tricky to know where to start, and there isn't just one way to go about it. You can look at joining game jams, do a short solo project, watch RU-vid tutorials about how to use certain engines, or even take online courses (which there are many). I hope that gives you some food for thought :)

Thank you for the sub! So for narrative, there are multiple things you can show in your portfolio, mostly examples of writing. This can be in the form of scripts, any prose you have written, character biographies, or even any D&D Oneshots you have made! The other thing I'd highly recommend is and example of your writing in a game - solo projects, game jams, student projects, and even mods for existing games. It's one thing to be good at writing, but it's another skill to be able to translate that into an interactable medium. I hope this helps!

Hello fellow designer! In my opinion, the best thing to add to your portfolio would be any sort of game project. This doesn't have to be big or complicated but the best way to demonstrate your understanding of how narrative elements work in an interactive media is by creating them in said interactive media! Showcasing writing, branching choices and dialogue are some of the ways you can do this in a game project. Hope this helps!

Thank you for watching! I'm not at the moment but please reach out to me in the new year via Twitter or IG and I'm happy to have a look :)

​@@RhianneMurphy Happy new year 🎉❤

Hello! Square has many offices across the world working on many IP's! I can't currently share what I'm working on but there are many western properties Square has published/worked on :)

@@RhianneMurphy I see, thanks for answering. I like your replies in the comment section, you don't beat around the bush and seem to give advice based on the industry practises. I look forward to see what you are working on in the future. Happy holidays!
