| 20s | early in our process |
| 21s | but what we did want to share was a new |
| 24s | video about the formation of the team |
| 26s | this one is a little more playful what |
| 28s | if building a game development team |
| 30s | were more like bringing the team |
| 32s | together at the beginning of ocean's |
| 33s | eleven |
| 36s | tim yeah so there really needs to be an |
| 38s | mrts |
| 39s | that's gonna take a lot of funding i |
| 41s | think we can pull that off but |
| 42s | we're gonna need a team as crazy as we |
| 44s | are who do you have in mind |
| 48s | we can get shooter he worked on game |
| 50s | heart and he's been leading the star 2 |
| 52s | design team he's good who can we get for |
| 54s | gameplay |
| 55s | monk would do it he worked at team |
| 57s | liquid he's on the balance team and he |
| 59s | designed the last four commanders |
| 61s | okay solid what about art jesse brooke |
| 65s | he led the in-game cinematics for void |
| 67s | and his artist killer |
| 70s | great how about server code austin |
| 73s | huddleson |

| 75s | years excellent |
| 77s | client code joe shunk he worked on |
| 80s | starcraft |
| 80s | and cnc all right how about esports |
| 84s | carol leforge she's on the blizzard |
| 86s | esports team and she's day nine and |
| 88s | tasteless month |
| 90s | sounds like we've got a team so that's |
| 94s | how frost giant got started |
| 96s | or something like it let's hear about it |
| 98s | in the team's own words |
| 100s | my name is ryan shooter my title is lead |
| 102s | ux designer |
| 103s | primarily focused on making sure that |
| 105s | the user experience |
| 106s | for the game is strong right now we have |
| 108s | pretty small number of designers so |
| 110s | we're all |
| 110s | kind of covering a lot at once hi my |
| 113s | name |
| 114s | is kevin dong back in the starcraft 2 |
| 116s | days i was the lead co-op designer for |
| 119s | that game |
| 120s | and i will be reprising that role at |
| 122s | frost drive |
| 123s | what i do on a day-to-day basis kind of |
| 125s | changes every day |
| 127s | like on the very top level uh i could be |
| 129s | designing systems or |
| 131s | individual commanders my name is jesse |
| 134s | brophy |
| 134s | if frustrating my role will be the art |
| 136s | director so a |
| 138s | fair director serves a lot of purposes |
| 140s | on a game |
| 141s | but the most important one is to support |
| 143s | the gameplay so a lot of what i'll be |
| 145s | doing is directing |
| 147s | various artists on what the look should |
| 149s | be but also like the presentation |
| 151s | it's more than just making models and |
| 153s | textures for the game but |
| 154s | how you present it to the players i'm |
| 157s | austin huddleston |
| 158s | i'm the lead server engineer at frost |
| 160s | giant on a daily basis |
| 162s | i'm mostly reading and writing code for |
| 164s | the game |
| 166s | i'm pretty focused at least right now on |
| 168s | multiplayer and networking type stuff |
| 170s | code that runs on the server that sort |
| 172s | of thing my name is joe |
| 174s | so uh my role at frost giant is gameplay |
| 177s | engineer |
| 178s | and of course all the units in rts are |
| 180s | really unique and have interesting |
| 182s | abilities so it's a lot of fun for a |
| 184s | game play engineer |
| 186s | hi i'm kara i'm business operations |
| 190s | lead at frost giant which |
| 193s | essentially means for the moment i'm |
| 196s | doing |
| 197s | things around finances and business |

| 217s | one of the joys of being in games and |

| 221s | get to work with |
| 222s | a team of incredibly experienced and |
| 224s | talented individuals and so as the game |
