About Raymond Soto

Left games to work in journalism. Left journalism to start games studio.I'm a creative technologist with a passion for interactive storytelling, currently a co-founder at Loric Games. My career journey has taken me across media and games across a variety of roles, including Senior Director of Emerging Technology at USA TODAY and Associate Art Director at Mythic Entertainment.With over two decades of experience in journalism and video games, I have led projects that have earned more than 20 prestigious awards, including the Pulitzer Prize for the groundbreaking multimedia report, "The Wall." My expertise in immersive technologies played a pivotal role in Gannett being honored as one of Fast Company's "World's Most Innovative Companies" in VR/AR in 2019. Additionally, my dedication and contributions earned me a spot among The Drum's esteemed "Top 100 Marketers in the World" for 2019.Before my tenure at Gannett, I held the position of Associate Art Director and Outsource Manager at Electronic Arts, where I spearheaded and guided a cross-disciplinary team of artists, designers, and animators.
