Hi!

I'm a Youtuber by the name of Cloud25XD, I was recently partnered with Maker Studios and was hoping to start getting a bit more serious with my content. Something that I've wanted to do for quite a while is interviews, talking about the design process and talking to voice actors about their work. Yes, this would be over Skype so there is no travel required. Just free advertising for your games.

Requirements:

-Game Director/Lead Developer

Game is at a playable stage (Alpha is preferred as the lowest)

Must be open to criticism and open to answering questions about the game.


-Voice Actor

Must have worked in at least 2 projects. (Games, shows, etc.)

(Preferred) Working on a project or just finishing one at the time of going on the show.


Thanks, Cloud

Can you give more details as to your intentions and scope? (questions and duration?)

What kind of coverage can you provide? (average expected views)

Also, I'd advise you learn more about game development before you do this, you just asked for "game directors" which, can mean anything up to 8 different roles:

En.wikipedia.org

If you wanted to learn the most about a game, focus on the discipline your most interested in, and target those people. Voice actors usually play a specific role in the development process, between the writing and audio departments, sometimes they get to talk to the artists, anyways,

If you're going to be game media, I'd advise you start looking at game journalists, and the like to get your cred up.

This isn't Twitch, we're not just gamers.

Do you know how long it takes to get projects to alpha? (let's say for 2D project, since most people start with 2D)

Hi Cloud,

We're a small studio based in Brisbane with one game, Epic Cat Runner, on the App Store at the moment and another in the works. We would be interested in talking to you about our game development process, our games generally, and our goals for the future.

You can contact me at zac DOT vanmanen AT celestialbeingstudio.com if you're interested in having a chat.

Thanks!

I'm well aware of most of what you're saying, I'm a novice game developer myself though I'm not too experienced yet which is a partial goal in talking to people in the game business. I want to learn how different developers work together and differently than others. And by game director/lead designer I'm basically just saying that I want to talk to somebody with a good idea of what's going on in the company and where everything is headed.
