Content Insider Special – Virtual CES 3
By Andy Marken –
Since the earliest CES, the OMG of the show has always been the screen … bigger, better, brighter, more immersive, more versatile, less expensive.
That’s a good thing because this year’s virtual event (and our locked at home lives) would have been terribly dull without the screen … and the content.
5G/NextGen TV, streaming and remote learning/work/communications tools are great, but they are nothing without the content creation industry – audio, video, gaming.
Content and virtual CES became even more important ingredients in the CTA world technology mix.
2020 left a lasting mark on our relationship with (and blurred the lines between) work, technology and entertainment.
PART II: It s Time to Move Out of the Boogle House by Neil Schneider on 01/21/21 11:10:00 am The following blog post, unless otherwise noted, was written by a member of Gamasutras community. The thoughts and opinions expressed are those of the writer and not Gamasutra or its parent company.
In part one of this series, I compared the mechanisms and challenges of developing cross-platform content to the children’s book “Why I Built the Boogle House” by Dr. Seuss’ wife Helen Marion Palmer Geisel.
The book is a strong comparable because like its creaking over-renovated Boogle House, our ecosystem is showing signs of being overburdened with important opportunities being missed by all. To help underscore this, I highlighted some of the challenges Epic Games had to overcome to make Fortnite a huge cross-platform success in the Boogle House.
