Ubisoft presenting “Developing Games: From Indie to Blockbuster” at Vivid Ideas in Sydney

Ubisoft Australia, in association with Ubisoft Montreal, yesterday advised they’re presenting a panel event called “Developing Games: From Indie to Blockbuster – Child Of Light & Watch Dogs” at this year’s Vivid Ideas Sydney.

The panel will feature Jean-François Poirier (Producer – Child Of Light) and Kevin Shortt (Lead Story Designer – Watch Dogs), both from Ubisoft Montreal.

“The panel will discuss game design, story narrative, production and a range of other development aspects and considerations required to deliver both videogame titles to global audiences,” Ubisoft confirmed.

IGN Australia’s Lucy O’Brien will chair the panel.

The panel takes place on 25 May from 3.30 – 5.00 pm AEST at the Museum of Contemporary Arts on George Street in Sydney’s Circular Quay. Tickets are available here.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
