Art Direction in Video Games | A Game Development Podcast

In this episode of Behind Massive Screens, Petter and Dóri meet Marthe Jonkers, Associate Art Director at Massive Entertainment, to learn about the role that art direction plays when creating a game – the impact it has on a game’s development, how it helps set a game’s style and tone early on, and how it together with concept art communicates ideas to developers.

And what role did a certain scary zombie girlfriend play in Marthe’s career? Let’s find out!
