Leading Talent Agency Joins Forces With Local Vancouver Gaming Studio |
|
Oprah Winfrey. Steven Spielberg. Peyton Manning. What does a Vancouver Gaming Studio have in common with these icons? Klei Entertainment is pleased to announce that they have formed a partnership with the Creative Artists Agency, a talent and literary agency that represents these and many more of the world’s most creative and successful artists. “The CAA are quite selective in their clients, so I’m happy that they’ve agreed to represent us,” says Jamie Cheng, CEO of Klei Entertainment. “Klei is known to create great original properties, and the CAA will help spread that love around.” An award-winning game development studio, Klei Entertainment is known for its outstanding creativity and developing games with rich story lines and user experiences. For Cheng, their partnership with CAA signals how within the gaming industry, the importance of creative talent is becoming more important. “It’s inspiring to see the industry grow as a creative medium and this is another step in the right direction,” continues Cheng. “And with their experience and backing during negotiation, we are able to focus on building the best creative studio possible, which of course is what Klei is all about.” About Klei Entertainment Klei Entertainment combines world-class talent and passion to create great games with memorable characters that appeal to a wide range of audiences. Located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Klei has developed and published games for the PC, Xbox LIVE Arcade (XBLA) and PC Online. Founded in 2005, Jamie Cheng self-funded Klei by selling his shares from THQ and borrowing $10,000 from his brother. He felt there was a latent demand for quality games built from passionate, small development teams, and has since created a developer-friendly environment that continues to thrive and evolve.
