The Gathering is the Magic Clip: "Christopher Burdett - Fretwork Colony"

During Gen Con 2022, I had an excellent opportunity to speak with the folks behind the upcoming documentary about Magic the Gathering, The Gathering is the Magic. It was a lot of fun and always a good time to talk about art, monsters, and more. I eventually was a part of a follow-up interview where I spoke about my work on the game in greater detail, as well as other topics. Another clip from the more recent interview has been shared, so I am now sharing it with you. 

The Gathering is the Magic - A documentary about how Magic the Gathering brings people together, fosters friendship, and inspires with art and storytelling.
 
In the interview, I was asked to discuss the cards I created for Magic the Gathering. It was fun to reminisce about the art and monsters I made, the fan response to them, and the behind-the-scenes stories regarding the cards. This clip is about the Fretwork Colony. Enjoy the clip, and check out what else The Gathering is the Magic has been sharing! 

The story of the Fretwork Colony and how a convention last year gave it some new attention.

That's all for another exciting Wednesday on the blog. See you back here on Friday! Until then...
