The Inspiration
In 2015, Laila Shabir and Girls Make Games welcomed Anne Edgar from Artifact Studios into their summer camp in Menlo Park, California to make a short documentary about what video games mean to girls and women. Anne witnessed first hand how encouragement from a teacher, parent, or mentor can make a big difference in who we become. And she saw girls transform themselves from game fans into creative, tenacious, confident video game makers. Our hope is the ASK A DEVELOPER series will give girls all over the world a taste of what it’s like to make a video game, and inspire a new generation of game designers and programmers.
