- 1. Proposal 1 Working Title: What is it called? This can change if you think of something better later Yu Dun Now. Audience: Who is your audience? Be very detailed; age, gender, social status, psychographic etc. Use the Audience Classifications PowerPoint on Blackboard to help you develop this section. Why would your project appeal to this person? Discuss each audience element in relation to content (why would your product appeal to the age group? Why would your product appeal to the gender? Etc.) My target audience is predominantly males who are 16 and over who are in the lower/ middle class. People who are also into what is happening in world and take notice of it would also be people who I would want to attract with this project. This is because this project comments and shows what is happening politically and what could happen if the government in many countries did not pay attention. Especially at this time, Australia. Which is the first level of the game to show the most importance even though it will be done in an satirical way. Rationale (approx. 100 words) Review your progress throughout the year- what video game and Photoshop skills and knowledge have you acquired? How will you use those skills? What was your advergame and how will it have a direct impact upon your project? Through the year, I have done a lot in the way of being able to put new skills into this project such as my new Photoshop skills that’s I can use to make my final project more visually appealing to audiences and help make the whole project have a better overall look. I have also had the chance to learn more in the way of audio to help make the audio for the whole project work and flow well with what is visually being shown. With these skills, I will be able to make my final project better than if I didn’t posses these skills. Project Concept (approx. 200 words) What is the concept for your project and what are you going to make? What research will you need to conduct and how will it help you make your project/ For my project, I am going to make a point and click game about natural disasters which have been said to destroy the world but instead of them being entirely natural, humans cause them in stupid ways, the player will control what the person does to destroy the world and how they’d do it. I am using this to comment on current events such as the bushfires in Australia at this moment in time and how even though the problem is a man-made disaster, the government is saying it’s not their fault, nothing could be done and it was natural, I will use this game to bring a satirical twist on this problem. Research for this project will include looking at news on the current situation on Australia and what is currently happening. Also looking at previous, critically acclaimed games of the same genre and what they did well to make such a successful and great game. Evaluation (approx. 50 words) How do you plan to evaluate the work? Reference conducting on-going evaluation (Production Reflections) and your final self-reflection (Evaluation), analysing your work and its outcomes. How will this process help developing your working practices as you continue with your study/media career? I will evaluate my work against each other to see what skills I have used and new ones I’ve learnt in my work from when I started this course to my most recent piece of work. I will also ask my peers to assess my work after each piece and see what they think and see if the criticism I have been given has been worked on or not.
