Improv and Gaming Conversation with Remi Treuer, Part 1

• 0:33 - This is your last chance to vote for the ENnies and potentially impoverish me. Voting closes July 29th.
• 3:09 - This show is a member of the Gaming Broadcast Network.
• 3:16 - Remi Treuer, one third of the Durham 3, sits down with me to talk about the relationship between improv and roleplaying. We start off by explaining our improv backgrounds, Remi's with Dirty South Improv and mine with Ventura Area TheatreSports.
• 10:24 - With that out of the way, we start exploring the ways in which improv isn't roleplaying and vice versa, starting with the idea of the space around the game.
• 16:38 - We discuss how conflicts and arguments work very differently between improv and roleplaying.
• 27:20 - And that does it for part one of our conversation. Next episode, we'll discuss what things can be stolen from improv and taken back to gaming.
