Cynthia Tan | Narrative Evangelist

As a lifetime fan of storytelling, I enjoy learning and using new immersive, innovative ways to experience stories. The possibilities of blending narrative and technology gets me excited. 

At current, I acquire the best series, films and animations; aggregating a content library of various genres for a tv broadcaster. On the side, I'm also working as a Technical Writer/Narrative Designer on a 3D adventure-exploration game developed in Unreal Engine 5.

I have worked across tv, film and games in various capacities, focusing on writing, producing and narrative design.

I pride myself in creating and acquiring quality content to support brand reputation, building emotional connections, as well as engaging audiences in social and experiential marketing strategies and tactics within manageable budget.

In 2022, BurntOut Capital, the game I have written and co-game designed with my team, won 3rd Place for Game with Social Impact at Games Bagus Game Jam, organized by NGO Biji-Biji Initiative and US Embassy KL. BurntOut Capital was also showcased at LevelUp KL 2022.

In my free time, I stay active in sports, especially badminton. If I don't find myself on the court, I would immerse myself in the rich world of story-driven games or quality television series. I also appreciate a good music jamming session (I play drums!).

I'm always open to seeking new opportunities. If you would like to connect, feel free to get in touch on LinkedIn or Twitter.
