World-Building: Experiments in Immersive Storytelling | Jason Ragosta | TEDxConstitutionDrive

For our special TEDxConstitutionDrive fifth anniversary event, we wanted to go back into the realms of imagination that we loved growing up - in childhood days where you can make anything, believe everything, and dreams could come true. We had speakers who reminded us what we are capable of -- from metalworkers and artists, to writers who craft fanciful and strangely believable tales, to normal people with extraordinary stories to tell.

Jason started his career in stop motion animation as a storyboard and concept artist at Wreckless Abandon Studios. He then went on to work as a writer, director, and director of photography, on various independent films, music videos, and commercials, including work he has done as concept artist for Pandora FX. After recently partnering up with Christopher Logan to create Harbinger Game Studios, Jason has been writing and art directing their first game as well as completing preproduction on the Pandora FX short horror Oculus VR film, The Ballad of Celia Lee.
