It all begins with the Collector
personality.Someone with this
personality would be fit to become a ScoutThe scout first recruits
people with the necessary traits to work in the gaming
industry like:Concept artists
AnimatorsSound engineers

This is where the Storyteller comes in.
Once the Scout has hired the necessary people, the team starts developing a video
game.
The Storyteller, who loves making up
stories and dialogues, becomes
a Game Writer.Game writers
create the characters,
dialogue, and plot that drives the
video game.http://www.gtagaming.com/images/news/1325786012.jpg
Someone with the Joker personality steps up,
because they love entertaining people and interacting with others
Now that there’s a basic idea for what
the video game will be about, it needs to be
presented.https://www.flickr.com/photos/holgman/3834329417/in/photolist-6QPWxT-cRJg2Y-cRJaZ3-cRJc4j-6Rj2AP-6Ro4C9-af9Y6K-cRJiAW-cRJi2C-6QTXfE-8KLenb-cRJfbf-cRJiUw-cRJhEC-cRJiiQ-cRJdQo-cRJd63-cRJhab-cRJgKL-cRJcw3-ouH5i1-6Se9JU-6Sea3q-oqRpBS-6QPLRZ-cRJetY-aj7gjJ-aj7g7s-6QN8sF-aeafrZ-aed47q-aeafCF-aeafbz-agddcv-6RspMx-6Rwtv9-6RsqBH-agfXKU-fygrLX-fyvNZ9-fyguTH-6QPPzk-fygddB-fyvzTo-fygotK-fyvuWY-fyvnr7-fyvD9A-fygiRe-fyvyxS
Someone with the Director personality will be in charge of overseeing the work done,
as the Creative Director of the company.
They will give their input after the presentation is made, and decide if the
ideas are what the company is looking for.
The Creative Director will be
involved throughout the entire process
and make sure everyone is on task.

People with the Artist/Creator
personality work in this field. They
take the ideas presented and
bring them to life
Once the ideas are approved, Game Artists can begin working
The artist takes the ideas that the writers
come up with and creates
Concept art and storyboards

In order to help with the animation of the video game, animators use the help of motion capture
to achieve more realistic movements and expressions.
People with the Kinesthete personality will enjoy the role of Motion Capture
Actors because it involves unusual movements and
more expressive acting than usual.
Motion capture actors must enjoy being in motion, and are the ones who help animators achieve more
realistic movements and expressions.

Once the animation and acting is completed, and the video game is developed, it is time for it to be tested.
People who tend to be more Competitive will enjoy this role in the game industry, since video games are heavily based on competition

Video Game Testers need to play through the games and find any flaws that must be fixed before the game is released.
Once the testers have played the game
thoroughly and bugs have been fixed, the game is ready to be released.
However, there is a critical step necessary before a game is released:
Marketing!
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/12/Halo_Reach-e3_2009_trailer.jpg
Marketers in the videogame industry make sure they target the right audience depending on the country or city where the video
game will be sold.It is therefore necessary for someone in the Marketing business to have an Explorer personality, since they
need to know about the place and the people where their videogame will be advertised.
Marketing of videogames usually takes place in the form of billboards and commercials, but what is most important
is the videogame conferences, like E3 or Gamescom

After this step, the videogame is ready to be put out into the market. This is all possible because of the many people who work
together, and who can bring their talents and passions into their job through their own play personalities.
Last year, the videogame industry collected $46.51
billion in revenue1.
