That's great you're in a better job.

Dyne, could you summarize what a day of your work is like. Being in cinematics, are you primarily working on concepts, storyboards, or what exactly?

Way to go, less stress es best

Seems like this is the week for that as Krome Studios also closed its doors today.

Best known for... well I guess MS Game Room really.

Storyboarding is too vague for something like car action. You won't know what looks good until you get into the game and look at the physics. Last year on Shift 1 they tried asking for really specific types of crashes and camera angles, and to be honest, we always delivered something really different but still totally on mark. We work on prototyping only now because the style's the most important aspect.

My day consists of getting pissed off at Gran Turismo footage and how unrealistic, clean, and gamey it looks. Example here:



This is an example of my work last year. Script and footage are all mine.



Sean: Holy hell yes we do. So much multiplayer to catch up on. NBA JAM! When are we throwing down?
