MAGIC Speaker Series: Behind the Scenes, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+ 2

The 2020-2021 MAGIC Speaker series will resume on September 24 with a talk from series sponsor Vicarious Visions. The theme of this year's series is: Made in New York and will feature guests each month from game studios in New York state.

Talk abstract: Vicarious Visions recently shipped Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 Remastered, garnering stellar reviews from critics and players alike. A small team at VV was responsible for Create A Park: a fan-favorite feature of the Tony Hawk series. Shea McCombs and Jeff Stewart will give some insight into VV's development culture and describe some of the innovations that the Create A Park team brought to the remaster, including procedural geometry tools that let players build skate park features not possible in previous titles.

The MAGIC Speaker series will be delivered virtually this year. Please register for this talk at: https://rit.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_K5aSjKQeR2-D7CVSs6Ib5A
