CAA Continues Foray Into Gaming Creator Space With ‘Criken’, Elspeth Eastman (Exclusive)

Talent firm Creative Artists Agency (CAA) inked its first-ever gaming creators in December, and today is amplifying that roster with two burgeoning stars: Keenan ‘Criken’ Mosimann and Elspeth Eastman (pictured above).

CAA will work with Mosimann and Eastman in every aspect of their careers, including TV, film, touring, digital distribution and partnerships, endorsements, personal appearances, and publishing.

Mosimann is a content creator and game designer who is innovating new formats that prize interactivity and narrative, CAA says. Some of the titles he launched while studying Interactive Media and Game Development at USC include I.C.U. and Close Your. Criken also harnesses his expertise to consult with top studios, publishers, and investors in the gaming space. He also just received an investment from seed stage capital company Betaworks to launch an interactive ghost-hunting show on Twitch called Ghost Commander.
