Charles Egenbacher's Blog

Hello everyone!

I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Production at the Guildhall at SMU, where I am building my leadership and communication skills on team-based video game development projects.

From the perspective of an associate producer, I briefly recount my personal experiences on Team Game Projects (TGPs), formulate conclusions based on these experiences, and offer insights that are relevant and informative to other students and the game development community at large.

Thank you very much for reading!
