Summery of main project

At the start of this project we were given the task of creating a game trailer, this project is to be completed by friday 18th june 2010 and will be displayed at the digital showcase on the 23rd june 2010, the client is shipley college.



to start off the class was seperated into two different teams, once that was sorted out we then were given the task of identifiying strengths and weaknesses, I noted my strengths as be being good at photoshop and having good ideas, for my weaknesses I noted down as being easily distracted and talking too much. Once done we decided on the team name, the name of our team would be 42, we then had to create a logo for it and at the next team meeting we voted for dans logo. Next up was the storyboard in which we have to think of a story for the trailer, my story see's a homeless person being taken in by a old man who runs a garage, the orphan soon starts racing hovercars and becomes a regional champion, he is aproched by a promoter but he declines his offer, so the promoter kills the old man and destroys the garage. now the orphan wants his revenge. in the end we went for different design.

after this we started work on our different scenes, i was assigned the first scene. this was simple to make as it was easy to make, also during this time we had a few team meetings to discuse a few things (more recently we were looking at sounds, i have been working on the space ship sound effects) the enviroment created is a space enviroment which has planets, the camera pans over the planets.



for another part of this project was to create designs for the merchandise for it, i decided to make a mug design with the team logo and the game logo on it.
