Five Mics: The Hip-Hop Trading Card Game is as much refreshing & novel as it is defiant & countercultural. However, how does one naturally reach this point to develop a game such as this?
Details
Timing:
Fri 2:00 PM - Fri 3:00 PM
Location:
Stadium
/ Meeting Room 8
Long Description:
This conversation will impact the intersection of hip-hop, comics/anime, and gaming (particularly, TCGs), with topics such as:
* Is betting on “blerd culture” a niche or mainstream play?
* What are the avenues to navigate in order to get games like Five Mics funded?
* What beneficial steps can we take to be more inclusive of black/brown and women TCG players?
* When creating a new market, what steps do you need to take to ensure you’re effectively expanding the pie and not stifling growth?
This talk will be hosted by Billboard-charting hip-hop artist, Call Me Ace (Founder & CEO of Five Mics Studios) and Javon Goard (video game researcher and PhD candidate at John Hopkins University).
