User-guide authoring and art direction within strict game and entertainment brand requirements.
── DISNEY USER GUIDES ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
For Disney, user-guide work combined authorship with art direction under strict IP licensor guidelines. The assignment joined clear explanations of the game with a presentation faithful to the licensed property.
── AUTHORSHIP AND VISUAL DIRECTION ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
User-guide authorship and art direction brought instructions, graphics and page layout into a coherent design under the licensed brand’s requirements.
── OTHER INDEPENDENT GAME CLIENTS ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Other independent game engagements included technical writing for NCSoft and technical writing with graphic design for Turner / Cartoon Network. These client assignments form a separate body of work alongside the earlier Atari employment.
