Career [ edit ]
Schofield trained in both fine arts and 🍊 business, earning a BFA from Pratt Institute and an MBA from Golden Gate University. His career began as an artist 🍊 and art director with the New Jersey video game company Absolute Entertainment. He then relocated to Seattle to join the 🍊 West Coast's burgeoning video games industry.[2] His professional influences included Asteroids, Moon Patrol, Gunstar Heroes, Disruptor and the Contra series, 🍊 followed later by Resident Evil, Gears of War, and the franchise he would eventually contribute to, Modern Warfare.[3]
As a vice 🍊 president at Crystal Dynamics, Schofield headed development on two of the studio's franchises: Gex and Legacy of Kain. Moving to 🍊 EA Redwood Studios (later Visceral Games) as general manager, he collaborated with Bret Robbins, including the popular Lord of the 🍊 Rings video series and 007: From Russia with Love.[2]
Schofield's reputation grew with the 2008 title Dead Space, which the magazine 🍊 Edge called "a work of passionate sci-fi horror that became one of most commercially successful new properties of the year."[4] 🍊 Schofield has said that the film Event Horizon inspired him to create a game that fused the genres of science 🍊 fiction and horror. The game's theme of humans in space losing perspective to their place in the universe is influenced 🍊 by the works of Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke, after whom the game character Isaac Clarke was named.[5][6]
