Artists and programmers often work together on complex projects in
stressful environments and things don't always go smoothly.
Miscommunication and misunderstandings are common as these two
disciplines often use the same words to mean different things when
they talk to each other. Unintentional slights can turn into
long-held grudges and productivity grinds to a crawl. This is a
"flip book" that contains two narratives in one. Turn the book one
way and read one perspective; turn the book over and upside down
and read the other perspective. The narratives can be read
separately, one after the other, or in alternating chapters.
Talking to Artists / Talking to Programmers can help anyone who
wants to improve communication with artists and programmers. It's
set up like a foreign language dictionary, so it addresses the
cultural norms, attitudes and customs surrounding the words each
group uses, so you'll know not just what the words in the glossary
mean, you'll know why they're used that way and how to get
communication flowing again. It addresses common reasons for
communication problems between these two groups and provides
specific suggestions for solutions. The unusual format allows for
each side to be given equal weight - learn how to talk to artists
starting on one side of the book, turn it over and learn how to
talk to programmers. The whole book stresses the things artists and
programmers have in common. Focused primarily on videogame
developers, it also applies to other fields where tech and art have
to work together, including web developers and teams building
mobile apps. Anyone who wants to communicate better with
programmers or artists - this book can help Features Lists of
common problems and strategies for solving them Specific ideas for
building bridges between departments Case studies from real teams
Glossary of terms causing the most confusion Explanations for
common friction points Approaches for fostering goodwill Solutions
for team dynamics problems Specific suggestions for providing
feedback Ideas for holding successful meetings
