    For 2020 I am doing something new for the podcast, I am bringing in spotlight months, where I have 4 devs from 1 studio on the podcast over the month, starting with my good friend and Cinimatic Designer at Remedy – Anna Mellor Meecham.
    We spoke about what the role entails, some of the self doubt that crept it that almost stopped her from taking it and how films as a medium can impact games.
