Hello Everyone!

My name is Tim Chuon, and I'm a board game photographer/videographer. I've done commercial work and made trailers for all kinds of games. I love being able to share how I make them on my YouTube channel, and I try to up the quality of content that I make for board games in general.

I'm really excited to be here with you all and will be answering any questions (from 1pm PST to 3pm PST) about filming/photography, help with content creation, or anything at all!

Hi All!

Hi all! I kind of want to explore making a short film for the hobby, and I'm really interested in knowing what your reason is for enjoying board games. If you're open to sharing and having it possibly mentioned/woven in the video, I'd love to see what your reason is for loving this hobby! I'll post the video on my channel and here as well when I finish it, hopefully within the next week or two

After making many video tutorials and teaching a ton of games to people, I wanted to make one dedicated video discussion on how to make a good rulebook. I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions on it and will be including it on my future video!

For me, I think every rule book can be simplified and broken down into the following categories.

  1. Setup- Keep how-to-play concepts OUT! List what goes on the table. Match names to pictures (Ex-Victory condition cards look like this, this miniature is called "The Assassin," this token is the fire token) Designate a section to show the types of cards and all the symbols on them. List what each part of the map/board means. Fortunately,
