Rob Landeros 
Co-Founder 
Aftermath Media

Landeros invents experiences, then he directs the process by which they are brought into being. In Computer Gaming Worlds' list of the greatest computer games of all time, Rob was involved in the creation of seven of them.  A meticulous artist, designer and craftsman, with a passion for innovation, Rob conceives of Aftermath as a vehicle for redefining the nature of  entertainment media, now and for the future. Currently, that passion manifests in the form of Point of View and Tender Loving Care, elegant marriages of interactivity and original storytelling. This unique approach, coupled with solid artistic and narrative content, provides for compelling entertainment experiences special to Aftermath products.

Prior to co-founding Aftermath, Rob co-founded Trilobyte, the maker of the wildly successful and classic CD-ROM products, The 7th Guest and The 11th Hour. Prior to that, he was Art Director for Virgin Interactive Entertainment. While there he directed numerous titles such as Spirit of Excalibur and War in Middle Earth.  He co-created the gameshow of the future, Lexi-Cross.

Rob entered the entertainment software industry as Art Director for Cinemaware. There, he directed such best-selling titles as Rocket Ranger, King of Chicago and Defender of the Crown.

Prior to moving into entertainment software, Rob delved into a variety of artforms.  In the sixties he reveled in the counter-culture movement, drawing outrageous  underground comics to support himself. Later he spent several years perfecting the art of wildlife engravings in fossil ivories. Eventually, he purchased a Commodore Amiga, created his first digital graphics, and never looked back.

For his achievements in entertainment software, and particularly for The 7th Guest and Tender Loving Care,  Rob has been honored with numerous awards, including:

• "Best Entertainment Title, 1994" (Multimedia World Reader's Choice Awards)
• "Golden Triad Award" (Computer Game Review)
• "Most Valuable Product" (PC Computing)
• "Best CD Game" (Interactive Academy Cybermania Awards)
• "Most Creative Use of DVD Technology" (European DVD Summit)
• "Best DVD" (Interactive Digital Media Association)
• "Best Hybrid DVD" (DVD Pro Conference 1998)
• "Super Games Hit Award" (Super Games Magazine)
• "Creative Excellence in DVD Technology" (DVD Pro Conference 1999)

Rob now lives with his wife, three dogs and three cats, in Medford, Oregon, where he enjoys golf, tennis, and motorcycling. He is the founder of Landeros Design.
