I read the gamer news globally for about 2 hours in the morning to prep for the day. Then, I typically have interviews and meetings with investors and strategic partners. I also do some writing of my own and supervise over 150 stories from my staff of writers.
Most days start with meeting up with the Directors and crew to discuss the day's activities. This can be anything from reviewing footage, scouting locations, arranging permits, to actual filming with crew on location. Every day is different, and sometimes can be very hectic, but it's always interesting.
