NARRATIVE PORTFOLIO
See below for examples of my work as a Lead Writer for a video game studio and Games Producer & Staff Writer for The Tonight Show.
Video Game Writing
As lead writer for 1047 Games, in addition to writing all of our in-game dialogue and lore bible (play Splitgate 2 in 2025 to check it out!) I also worked on numerous aspects of our marketing material out now. For example:
—> I wrote multiple cinematic trailer scripts, including the recently released announce trailer:
—> I wrote comics expanding the lore and worldbuilding of Splitgate 2 (full comics available to read in our digital Splitgate 2 companion app, or I can provide PDF on request):
—> I wrote quizzes in our digital Splitgate 2 companion app that sort players into their respective faction, in the style of a Buzzfeed personality quiz:
Games Producer and Staff Writer for The Tonight Show
I was a staff writer for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon for over three years. For two of those years, I was our Games Producer, meaning that I wrote and produced all of the games played on the show. This meant developing and testing new game ideas, writing scripts, working across departments to create artwork and sets, working with celebrity talent to direct them in the games, and overseeing and giving notes on the edit process. I produced hundreds of games for over 500 episodes of television, including…
—> Simple trivia games, like this “German Words Quiz” with Christoph Waltz:
—> Food competition “reality TV” style games, like the Tarik vs Jimmy Cook-Off series, such as the “Cake Off”:
—> Video game competitions, like this Among Us charity event which broke Twitch records:
—> Physical challenge games like “Will It Fit?” with BTS:
—> So many musical competition games, like the “Name That Song Challenge” with Taylor Swift:
—> Party games like “True Confessions”:
—> Bluffing games like “Box of Lies”:
—> Classic gameshow games like “Password”:
And so many more! If you can think of a talk show or game show type of game, I’ve probably developed, written and produced a version of it.
