The Ryzo team and Erica Milsom, founder of Ryzo studios and former director of Pixar, will share the lessons they’ve learned translating a 12-minute film into an engaging Roblox combat game. They’ll share the bumps along the way and how they’ve worked to find the “native language” behind the art of video games, transforming a story about emotional regulation into a gameplay mechanic that is entertaining and educational for kids.This is a session for creators, developers, and advocates interested in how we can meet youth where they already are to build muscle memory for mental health.This event will include a meet and greet with the creators from 6:00-6:30. The presentation will run from 6:30 to 8:00.What is Release the Beast?Release the Beast is a 12-minute animated film that follows Aaron, a 14-year-old aspiring game designer who is pushed to his breaking point by a bully. When his repressed anger finally snaps, his unfinished gaming character, "Stan," splinters into multiple rage-fueled incarnations — from a chaotic sticky-note sketch to a high-fidelity CG warrior — turning his bedroom into a psychological battlefield. Aaron must wrangle his runaway inner voices and decide if these "Stans" will destroy his life or help him finally level up.What is Rage Fighters?Rage Fighters is a Roblox game that transforms the themes of Release the Beast into a high-stakes "inner-world" combat experience. Players battle through multiple zones, facing enemies that represent Aaron’s real-world pressures. To survive the onslaught, players must manage a “Rage Meter” by mastering technical regulation skills: breathe, chill, and pause. This is a game that turns moments of rage into an opportunity to teach youth how to stay focused, ready, and in control. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/oakland/story-into-action-the-making-of-rage-fighters-with-erica-milsom-and-the-ryzo/100001985640418945 - **Event Categories**: Entertainment, Art, Kids, Meetups, health-wellness - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Oakland - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: The Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment - **lat**: 37.80199020000001 - **long**: -122.2743559 - **full address**: The Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment, 921 Washington Street, Oakland, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Story into Action: The Making of Rage Fighters with Erica Milsom & the Ryzo - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/0561e3f1b5f34db05250b20407798c2768d2aebe49552740c810733d85545d01-rimg-w1200-h675-dc030204-gmir.jpg?v=1774197065 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Story into Action: The Making of Rage Fighters with Erica Milsom & the Ryzo being held? - **A:** Story into Action: The Making of Rage Fighters with Erica Milsom & the Ryzo takes place on Thu, 16 Apr, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Thu, 16 Apr, 2026 at 08:00 pm at The Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment, 921 Washington Street, Oakland, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Story into Action: The Making of Rage Fighters with Erica Milsom & the Ryzo? - **A:** Story into Action: The Making of Rage Fighters with Erica Milsom & the Ryzo is organized by The Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment. - **Q**: What has been the experience of attendees at The Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment's events? - **A:** Attendees have given The Museum of Art and Digital Entertainment a rating of 1/5 based on reviews from early attendees on AllEvents.
