- Act as a link between teams to put people in touch with the appropriate **resources** (other teams, external suppliers, etc.).
- Direct and propose **stagings** for the game to amplify the emotions produced by the gameplay.
- ** Support** different teams (sound, music, editing, staging, etc.) according to their needs.
- Ensure **continuity** of tone between the playable moments to ensure **consistency** between the game elements to avoid unevenness.
- Balance **technical constraints** and **ambitions** to achieve a quality experience.
- Provide **feedback** to and work with the production teams to achieve quality goals in a timely manner.

- Influence and positive leadership with the ability to get everyone on the same page.
- Versatility so you can juggle several files at a time depending on priorities.
