Interview with Steve Thomas, Creative Director

Steve ThomasWhat is your title at Worldwide Biggies? How long have you been working for the company?

I am the Creative Director of Art and Design and I’ve worked for Biggies for almost 8 months. Before this I was living and working in Italy as a builder and designer. I’ve also worked as a creative director at Oxygen Media and Viacom’s Nickelodeon.

What do you do specifically for The Princess Bride Game?

I coordinate the art and design of all the aspects of the game. I help keep all the creative people and their efforts consistent and relevant. I’m not the Animation Art Director, but I work closely with everyone in the company in expressing the assets of the game internally and externally.

What is your favorite aspect of the game?

The quality of the production and the way the animation so wonderfully captures the cinematic quality, humor and romantic nature of the film. The games are so well rendered and planned out. It is clearly a game of a high caliber.

What’s been the most fun about working on the game so far?

The people here. I have never been with such a energetic and talented creative group with new ideas and ways of thinking about entertainment.

What do you think people will love about the game?

The villains, heroes and the story. It’s involving and destined to be a classic. Even the chickens in the “As You Wish” episode have great personality.

What’s your favorite quote and character from the movie/book?

I like Buttercup’s quote: “Farm boy, polish my horse’s saddle. I want to see my face shining in it by morning.” I think it’s naughty and nice at the same time. Who doesn’t like an assertive young lady?
