Those who are 35+, what advice do you have for people just entering their 30s?

I get it! That scene had me crawling up a wall for mooooonths. Literally, it had so many iterations. It was frustrating, but yeah! 2-3 drafts is like. Just exploration don’t let it discourage you. :)

Especially in games, there’s so manu reasons something might have to change outside of your dept

Figuring out that balance along with the information dump took a lot of finessing!

The little call and response they do was ad-libbed! We had the lines and just said “idk make it sound like a call and response churchy/greek stepping sound.” And working with Black VAs they knew just what I meant 🥹

That first scene has like. 20 drafts. First scenes are always important, but this is the first and last time the player sees Hazel and Lacey interact for a long time in the game.

We had to make the players like her, but also make them butt heads in a way that didnt make her feel overbearing

That get a job line is my pride and joy. It’s so stupid, but you can see Hazel saying it. It doesnt really feel out of place.

Our mocap actress, Nona, ran track in college if I remember correctly! At least at a high level in high school :) she was absolutely amazing and the animators killed it!

Hazel yells "GET A JOB" at a major villain and it cracked me up in the best way okay 🤣 Also WHERE THE ANIMATORS AT??? SHE RUNS LIKE A TRACK STAR AND JUMPS LIKE A LONG JUMPER AND I LOVED THAT SO MUCH

DOES LITTLE STRETCHIES WHEN SHE IDLES 😭💖

SAY IT RIGHT NOW I MEANT IT

Look I'll start I finished South of Midnight this weekend and @zeestermeester.bsky.social and @epistellar.bsky.social really killed it on the writing. I kept coming back to that first Hazel + Lacey scene cause it was so GOOD + REAL
