Writing, gaming & product designing with Anshumani Ruddra, VP of Products at Hotstar
Manage episode 312301449 series 3232285
A writer, a game designer and a product manager walked into a bar.
Twist - all of the three is the same person!
Say hello to Anshumani Ruddra, who is presently the VP of Products at Hotstar. He’s worn the hat of a writer, a game designer and a PM, which gives him the unique ability of looking at products in a way that most of us skip.
Come to think of it, just as a well written article takes you through a journey while gradually stacking layers of information, a good game design or a good user journey does exactly that. You begin by subtly grabbing the user’s attention, adding a new piece of information without overwhelming the reader/user and then continue doing so until you reach a call to action (CTA).
In our case, the CTA is us requesting you to check out this awesome podcast with Anshumani.
