Behind The Geeks | Casey Baron on Why Games Belong at Tribeca

On this special Behind The Geeks, Justin and Nate sit down with Casey Baron, Senior Programmer for Tribeca Games, to discuss the growing role of video games within the Tribeca Festival and the evolving relationship between games and film. Casey shares what it actually means to be a Senior Programmer, the games that shaped his perspective on interactive storytelling, and how his experience across both film and games influences the way he approaches the festival. We also explore the role games play in the future of storytelling, the recognition of independent game developers, and which titles attendees should keep an eye on at this year’s Tribeca Festival. Plus, Casey joins us for our signature “Whatchya?” segment to share what he’s currently watching, playing, and recommending. Attending Tribeca this year? Be sure to visit the free, public Games Gallery at Pier 57 from June 10–14, where you’ll have the chance to play exclusive demos of exciting unreleased games featured as part of the Tribeca Games Program.
