Our second guest speaker at TEDxLeeds2009 was Charles Cecil, leading the Entertainment segment of the evening’s programme.
Managing Director of Revolution Software - creators of Beneath a Steel Sky and the Broken Sword series – Charles is also part of the BAFTA Interactive board and on the board of Game Republic, a consortium of regional games developers
Recently Charles’ work, with new platforms such as Apple’s iOS, has led to a revived relationship between publishers and gamers. His talk explored the history of the videogames industry and the notion of rebuilding a direct relationship with audiences.
