For your viewing pleasure.
In our never-ending quest to illustrate the many ways you -- yes, you! -- can work in the gaming industry, we've decided to explore another route in. And this one's for the mathematically-inclined among you. Kurt Lewin is a Senior Analyst at EA-owned racing developer Codemasters, and on this episode of +, he takes the time to go into the finer details of his job: What he studied in school, what he did before he leaped into the industry, and (of course) the day-to-day of his working life. Steeped in charts, tables, and reports galore, Kurt's job is to understand his studio's games' commercial performance through the opposite metric of, say, playtesting or review-scouring. That is to say, he brings the numbers, and it's hard to argue with data. Like similar episodes past, it's our hope that our chat influences some of you out there to get into our industry, leveraging your skills to help deliver killer games to a hungry audience. You don't need to be an artist, programmer, or designer to be here. Far from it.
