Creative Voice: Carrie Cutforth-Young (Part 1)
Carrie appeared on my radar sometime earlier this year (on Twitter, of course). Then a few weeks after I started Transmedia Vancouver, she started Transmedia Toronto.

Well, Laura Fleming is the kind of teacher I would have loved in school. She truly understands how education can be improved — and implements it in her own classroom every day, using …

Transmedia writer and game designer extraordinaire, Andrea has worked on projects ranging from Perplex City to America 2049 to the Maester’s Path to Floating City. She’s currently working on an independant project called Balance of Powers with David Varela, Adrian …
