He is the founder of Tallgran, a 3D character and production studio best known for the quality and cultural accuracy of their work.Isaac was a key contributor to Dove's Code My Crown initiative and delivered a solutions focussed presentation at GDC '24 about authentic representation of black hair in games.
I talk to Isaac about his motivation for contributing to these 2 projects because I know first hand they have already inspired the next generation of independent video game developers and I for one cannot wait to see what they build.
