Mentor Sessions offer 15 minutes of one-on-one interaction with industry leaders and professionals from a variety of fields in the gaming industry.
Meeting with this Mentor is highly recommended if you’re interested in storytelling in various media, world building, character design, narrative design, and creative leadership.
Tom Alvarado is a storyteller with experience working in video games, film, TV, online video, and animation. As a child, he learned English from comic books, which ignited his passion for storytelling (and for justice!), and spent countless hours playing video games, which shaped him into the emotionally balanced individual he is today.
You can see Tom’s full bio on his speaker page.
