You should do more of these. Found the video to be insightful and surprisingly relaxing, given the way you explained the concept in a relatively "easy listening" manner. 👍

Hello, I'm a Game Designer Junior fresh out of school and despite a great interest in Narrative Design, it wasn't a subject in the years of study I did. I would like to start a personal project to gain experience and add to my portfolio but I really don't know what would be a good project as a first experience and which would still be attractive for employers. As a Narrative Designer yourself, what exercice would you say encompasses the various skills of a Narrative Designer and would make a nice addition to a portfolio ?
@RhianneMurphy
@RhianneMurphy 9 ай бұрын
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 the video. I would be interested how the Scripting tools, Final Draft, Articy and Celtx are used in practice. Right now it seems that Articy and Celtx offer a free trial version of their software.

I have one question though Rhianne, How would you recommend a person to develop a game designer skillset/mentality when you have a writer background only?
@RhianneMurphy
@RhianneMurphy 10 ай бұрын
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 KZfaq 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 :)

ive recently took up interest in this position specifically as a way to work in game design and was wondering if this position ends up working closely with concept artists or if there was maybe another term for someone who does both. i was a drawer before i took interest in game design and am wanting to work on narrative while still having a hand in the visual design: iyo would seeking a smaller studio where these roles are interspersed be best for that? (thanks for the vid also i feel like its helped me get some bearings, also is that kurama on your shelf?)
@RhianneMurphy
@RhianneMurphy 21 күн бұрын
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!

Great video - There´s my subscriber support for you. Are there ANY links or examples of portfolio work - Literally what it LOOKS like? No one´s covered that part in anything I´ve watched. Most people I know have never had a ´thing´ published so how do people get something on screen into their portfoilio that is extracted from a game if they´ve never had that experience?

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!

I just found this channel through your Twitter. It says you are a narrative designer for Square Enix. I thought Square Enix was a Japanese studio and that they sold off the Tomb Raider and other Western IPs to Embracer? Unless I'm unaware of some Western games still under Square Enix's umbrella OR of course if you work for Square Enix directly in Japan, e.g. their Final Fantasy games. Can you tell what games you are working on right now or is it a unannounced project still?
