Autodesk – Product Marketing & Games Industry Marketing, 2009

At Autodesk, I continued as Product Marketing Manager from Softimage but soon took on the role of Product Marketing and Games Industry Marketing for the Autodesk Games group.  I was responsible for Product Marketing for middleware, and Games Industry Marketing for all products relevant to the games industry.

Portfolio of deliverables:

Autodesk Games Website

Games Industry Website Revamp
I was responsible for repositioning and communicating the Autodesk Games industry group, which now had middleware as a core focus in addition to DCC products. One of the deliverables was updating the Autodesk Games website. I worked with Annie Belanger, Marketing Communications Manager, to update the Autodesk Games website with the new positioning and relevant information for each product.

Autodesk Kynapse Demo
I created this demo presentation for the Autodesk Kynapse AI middleware product that I was doing the marketing for. The demo script was created by Jacques Gaubil (co-founder, Kynogon) and I produced the video. The purpose of the video was to provide a sales-tool which the field could then use as a starting point for discussions with clients.

Autodesk HumanIK Demo
This is a demo of Autodesk HumanIK middleware that I created during my stint at Autodesk as Product Marketing Manager for the games group. The demo coding was done by Jill Isner and I packaged it all up nicely into this demo script and video which could then be used by the field for informational purposes.
