Gelb is joined by Victor Shiu, director of games at LaunchBoom, veteran crowdfunding consultant, and board game designer, to explore his journey from filmmaking and digital marketing to launching successful board game campaigns.
Together, they discuss Victor’s inspiration for creating “Hover,” a fast-paced and strategic board game about the surprisingly fierce world of hummingbirds, and dig deep into the realities of crowdfunding, independent publishing, and creative collaboration with his wife.
