Project ALMA: Co-creating with Making Movies and Dreamloop

Speakers:
Joni Lappalainen (CEO, Dreamloop Games)
Pauliina Piipponen (Producer, Making Movies)

How do you take a story built for the screen and reimagine it for a controller—or vice versa?

In this talk, Pauliina Piipponen from the acclaimed production company Making Movies and Joni Lappalainen, CEO of the innovative game studio Dreamloop Games, explore the creative and strategic potential of cross-industry IP collaboration through the development journey of ALMA.

Using ALMA as a central case study, they’ll unpack the process of co-creating a world that lives across both film and games—highlighting challenges, breakthroughs, and what it takes to build a shared narrative vision across formats.

A must-attend session for storytellers, producers, and developers looking to expand their IPs into new interactive territories.
