Meet The Team Behind Double Fine PsychOdyssey - MinnMax Interview

Описание: MinnMax's Ben Hanson interviews Paul Owens, Paul Levering, and Asif Siddiky from 2 Player Productions. They're the film crew embedded at Double Fine who created the Double Fine Adventure documentary and the new 32-part series Double Fine PyschOdyssey covering the full development of Psychonauts 2. We talk about the logistics of how they filmed for 7 years and managed to edit over 5,000 hours of footage into a riveting documentary showcasing game development in a way nobody has before.
