This subseries contains documentation related to the development and release of Prince of Persia (1989), Mechner’s second published computer game by Brøderbund. Materials here include notes, correspondence, sketches, reference materials, script drafts, contracts, technical documentation, advertisements, press releases, published reviews, photographs, videos, and more. Mechner utilized a rotoscoping process to create life-like movement and animation for his characters in the Prince of Persia; the sequenced photographs, as well as the ones in the photograph albums in this subseries, demonstrate this technique.
