How do movie, TV, or game studios get new, original IPs for their movies, TV shows, or games?

118 viewsOther

I know they can license *existing* IPs, but for *new* IPs, do they have a team of writers who just come up with new stuff, or do they go out looking for people with ideas? Or do people with new ideas shop their ideas around movie, TV, or game studios and hope someone is interested?

So this is probably not the game design you were thinking of. But for Magic the gathering sets, they have 2 teams for each set. A design team and a development. The design team is the world building team, creating the theme and greater concepts from scratch ( lately they’ve been licensing a bunch of IP). Iirc, they are only minimally designing specific cards, that’s the job of development.
