sanjay week 2

On the first day of the second week we were told to write a case study on concept art which was supposed to include answers to what is concept art, why is it used? and so on but we were also told to include how concept art effects a game. By doing this research I now knew what I had to do for my own concept art. The first thing I had learnt was that to not make concept art look like the final repersention of what the game will look like when the game is finished but to be more creative with your work.

Wednesday was the day I actually started the blog that had to include our progress on our project. The way I was going to tackle the blog was to put it in a weekly format so when a week was done on the work I could easily publish it onto the blog.

Later we all came together as a group and talked about what style we would include into our game and many ideas were passed around, one idea the was mention was that the game could be cel shaded. If we chose for this cel shaded style which is used in the most recent zelda game we could make the game world and enimies more exagereted like in Skyrim but I wanted to seperate our game from Skyrim so the idea I said we should have is to make the game more realistic. The reason why chose this type of style was because by making the game more realistic in the sense of art style is that the game world would be more imersive to the player and that the player will be more connected to the game aswell as the characters because they look like creatures that could exist in the universe because of all the detail we could include because of the realistic design.

Also by making this art dirction chioce it wold seperate us from our competitors, the biggist being Skyrim that uses a bit of a cell shaded look which makes the game unrealistic and breaks the connection from the game to the player.

Thirdly and lastly we now had to show our game to the rest of the class so with the work we were able to produce we showed what our team had done. We also got feedback from our peers which was helpful to us and also to them.
