Agenda

"It Takes A Village" is a chat show now in its second season (hosted on YouTube) where we shine a light on the people who make our games, on themes of collaboration, community and co-advocacy. It's a love letter to our unsung heroes, a thank you to those who uplift others, inspiration to those interested in starting a career in games, and provides unique industry insight. Host Samantha Béart will chat with guests about how they got into games and the details of their craft, then moderate an informal audience Q&A. It is a wholesome fireside chat where developers can recognise and learn from those who've helped the industry, as well as share advice on navigating what can often be a challenging industry to work in.

Hosted by Samantha Béart, a classically trained and BAFTA-nominated actor, best known for their role as Karlach in "Baldur's Gate 3".

Takeaway

Attendees will gain deep industry knowledge in not only the specialisation of each guest, but also their perspective of the games industry as a whole. They'll feel inspired to nurture their own communities in whatever form those communities might take.

Intended Audience

This is for anyone who's interested in intimate, behind-the-scenes chats with games industry professionals.
