My short film initial plans

1. Initial Plans
Rhys Sadler-Scott

2. Initial Reaction
I was happy when I received the brief, as I
enjoyed the production on the Advergame in my
last project. Which this one will be similar to.
This project will allow me to experiment with
detail and designs on Photoshop, which I also
enjoy doing. I think I’ll do a Sidescroller or an
exploration game, similar to Legend of Zelda.
Though I also have a few ideas for a character
swapping mechanic and a superhero theme,
that I hope I can integrate.

7. Mood Board Analysis
There isn’t a lot of colour repetition in my mood board, but I
have tried to emphasize a focus on teamwork in the pictures
I have chosen. For my game I want a light hearted 2 player
game, with a superhero theme. The mood in all of the
pictures is light and comedic. Colour-wise, they are typically
quite bright, though this can vary.
I hope the mood board will help me set the tone of my
finished product and the emphasis that I will place on
teamwork and character Co-operation.
