Organizing the performativity of a creative vision: a longitudinal study (1987-2013) of the rationalization of game design at Ubisoft

Abstract

In the context of a structuring video game industry and growing game development teams, this article explores how Ubisoft creates, develops and deploys a game design vision. The authors highlight the importance of creative leadership by showing the role of translators and trainers in coupling the leader’s vision to his or her socio-material presence, as well as the importance of the density of devices to implement this vision.
