Скачать или смотреть The Hidden World of Photography Games: A Deep Dive

Before sitting down to research this video, I didn't know that photography games even existed.

The strange, and largely unknown meeting ground between photography and video games is not often acknowledged. I myself thought it a ridiculous concept for years. But (if you couldn't tell by the fact I have made a whole video essay looking at them) they peaked my interest, an interest I am sharing with you.

From the birth of the genre to the latest games. From games worth only a laugh, to games worth sinking some hours into. From engaging stories aided by camera mechanics, to dedicated virtual photography experiences. All is covered in this deep dive.
