Turner Broadcasting System, a Time-Warner Company, announced the development of a behind-the-scenes documentary for Ubisoft’s widely anticipated video game title: Myst V: End of
Ages. The documentary, which will be packaged with the Myst V: End of Ages Limited Edition disk as a bonus DVD, will explore the story behind Ubisoft’s best-selling Myst franchise and focus on the creation of its final adventure.
“Gamers are like the toughest film fanatics: they want more than a technical look at the making of a game. They want to see the compelling story behind its creators, the challenges and triumphs of the creative process,� said Michael Watchulonis, Executive Producer for GameTap Entertainment. “We at Turner have learned a lot over the years by producing signature original programming for CNN
and Cartoon Network and are excited to apply these skills to the gaming industry – specifically an innovative, breathtaking and cinematic game like Myst V: End of Ages.�
In addition to the Ubisoft project, GameTap Entertainment is producing an exclusive mix of magazine, reality, and lifestyle shows, interviews with the who’s who of gaming, celebrity features, and all-new “game trailers� for the GameTap service. Delivered via streaming video, the programming will celebrate games in the same way that Cartoon Network celebrates animation and TNT celebrates drama.
