[p]Every week, we’re spotlighting one of the minds behind the mayhem. You’ll get to learn about folks from both Gearbox and 2K, and how each person who touches the game both influences and is influenced by Borderlands 4. This week, we're talking with Allison Mann, 2K’s Senior Manager for Game Capture:[/p][p][/p][p]What’s your philosophy when it comes to showing gameplay in the best light?[/p][p]Gameplay capture is all about making the game look the most fun it can possibly be. My biggest philosophy when capturing is to make the game look how you feel when you're playing it for yourself. This means heightening cinematic moments, creating smooth transitions from one action to the next, while also staying authentic to the game's tone and gameplay loop. It's like the ultimate gamer wish fulfillment![/p][p][/p][p]How do you handle situations where what looks fun to play isn’t always easy to show on camera?[/p][p]This is one of the trickiest challenges with game capture, and we employ a couple of tools to get around obstacles like these. Lighting a scene, adjusting the camera angle, changing an enemy type, or using a different location all contribute to getting a great shot. We try to keep every moment fun while also communicating what we want to show the player. Say we need to capture a unique weapon that feels fun to play - showing a detailed close-up of the weapon and then cutting to a high-energy combat gameplay shot keeps the action flowing and emphasizes the fun, while also communicating the features of the weapon to the player without compromising any visuals.[/p][p][/p][p]What advice would you give to someone who is interested in working in game capture?[/p][p]Play lots of video games! Seriously, being a gamer is probably the biggest requirement for getting into game capture. Understanding how to play video games, what good gameplay should look like, and understanding what players expect in games are all essential to marketing them. This is one of those few jobs in game marketing where you are expected to play the game every day! ;) Additionally, having an educational background in visual art, film/TV, or game development will definitely set you ahead. At the end of the day, everyone in game capture is a gamer at heart. We love playing video games, and we love making them look cool as hell.[/p][p][/p]
