This workshop has started or is in the past.

Class Description: In this workshop, we'll challenge the notion that everything needs to be figured out in the first few lines of a scene. Instead, we'll explore how compelling behavior can capture our attention and lead to compelling scenes. We will let the context tumble out when it's ready, rather than forcing it. And when the base reality becomes clear, we will often have a game that is surprising and fun, that is driven by behavior, and that is truly organic.
