Production Part II

I run the production behind live broadcasts: a living-room tournament produced like a real show, an esports circuit's weekly leagues, and freelance shows for the TFT scene. Every broadcast that's still online is linked below.

Windsor Showdown

When
2022–2024
Role
Organizer & producer

A yearly party-game tournament I ran and streamed with my elementary school friends, from 2022 until I moved away in 2024. I produced it like a real broadcast: a run of show, recorded player intros, a new logo each year, a live scoreboard and multiple cameras.
