1. initial plans
- 2. Mind Map Personal project Ideas Graphic Novels Video Game assets Posters For this project I would create the characters of the video game and make up a general but very entertaining story line. I will have to think about sound and dialogue. I will create a storyline which will read and match up with pictures that I will make. Most graphic novels have heroes and villains so mine will also. I will create posters of a movie or TV show because it advertises the product the best. I will think about the colour and the style of the poster.
- 3. Mind Map Characters Sound and dialogue Storyline The city has been overrun due to a virus and a team of 8 criminals with powers have been sent in to find a cure. Genres will either be survival action or fantasy maybe even all together The sounds in the game are going to be eerie and creepy thriller sound effects because anything could happen at any minute A prison transport plane has fallen and everyone has to work together to escape The main characters to choose from will be 7 different criminals and 1 guard who led to all of there arrests The dialogue will be very deep voiced and dark Some of the characters have supernatural abilities and some are just highly skilled but there is no customisation
- 4. Mood Board
- 5. Mood Board Analysis Is there any repetition in the images you have collected? Repeated colours/images styles/fonts/tone/mood • Yes there is a lot of images of different things too do with games here but that’s because my product is very similar to all of these. The genre of the images are very horror/thriller. The pictures go into quite a few details about my game and they show a dramatic effect towards the game and this will really interest the audience. How will your mood board influence your final product? • I am going to take most of the ideas from the mood board and put them together to make my game. These are what some of my characters will look like but I will make them myself of course. These images are not from any other games though so I am not copying any ideas therefor my game should stand out.
- 6. Informal Proposal Current Idea Concept My game is going to be a survival game. It is an 8 player and you can play online with people as the different characters following the storyline of getting out of the city Type of products you would make Video game assets such as my characters, the city area, the viral monsters What you will need to make them I am going to use Photoshop to create my product and also sketches Audience My audience will be teenagers and young adults between the ages of 15-25. The majority of gender playing my game will be Males however it is for females as well if they wish to play
- 7. Choices Discounted ideas Reasons for not choosing this project Posters • I did not choose this because I have already made lots of posters before in my first projects Graphic novels • I chose not to do this because getting the images would be way too hard
