This document outlines the pre-production plans for a video game montage and poster. It includes details on the style, colors, fonts, games, music, and storyboards to be used. Red, yellow, and blue were chosen as main colors to represent blood, fire, and icy mist. Friction and Gold were selected as songs that blend rock/drama and match the violent content. A 8-day schedule is proposed to collect assets, edit the montage and poster using Premiere Pro and Photoshop. Contingency plans and health & safety considerations are also documented.

1. Pre-Production
Jake

2. Style sheet
White for the
assassin's in the
assassin’s creed
games
The colour red is for
blood, when a
character stabs or
shoots a bad guy.
The colour yellow
will be used when
there's a fire
Lyric font
Music
Friction: the reason for
picking this song is, the
fact that it blends rock and
dramatic music, which
would be perfects for
action scenes, The lyrics of
the song are very good as
well, because they link up
with violence.
Gold: The song gold is a
very dramatic song, which
blends well with violence,
but not violence between
2 people violence between
1 man and his mind, so its
basically more of a
physiological violence.
The reason for the fonts are
because I’m going to show the
lyrics from the music I’m using
in the montage

3. Lyric font
The reason for picking these
type of fonts are because I want
it to match up with the product,
so the music I picked is quite
creepy and sinister so I picked
evil and creepy fonts. I also
picked some video game fonts
so that it would blend with the
content of the product.
The reason for having
lyrics in my product is
because it helps blend
the clips and the music
together.
The reason for having
colours are because it
makes the montage feel
more alive and present.
If it was in black and
white it would look like a
flashback
Some of the
colours that will
be used

4. Style sheet part 2
Red – for the
background of the
poster.
Yellow – for the fire.
Blue – for the icy
mist.
The reason for these
style fonts, is because I
want it to match up with
the video game montageThe reason for picking
these colours are because
the bright and eye
catching, and because it’s
an advertisement it needs
to be eye catching.
The colours used are quite bright and colourful, which
could make the audience feel happy, but some colours
can give off a different feel like red. The connotations of
red are fear, danger, blood, which shows its connection
with the montage as the montage is violent.

5. Layout
Games used
Assassin’s creed
Dragon age inquisition
Grand theft auto 5
The walking dead
Game of thrones

6. Layout
Games used
Steep
Halo
Saints row
Skyrim
WWE 2k17
The reason for picking these
games are because they have
casual points and action points
within there stories. I wanted
these types of games so that I
could easily blend the games to
the music, for instance with the
walking dead game if there was a
calm point in the music, I will use
calm point from that game, and
I’ll do the same if there's an
action point in the music.

7. Layout
Poster
Friction
I like this type of layout
because it uses white space,
meaning the audience will
focus on the centre of the
poster where there is no
empty space. In the centre I
have used main characters
from different games that I
used in the montage, I did this
because people will be able to
identify this as a video game
poster.

8. Story Boards
In these clips there will
only be action, so
when the music starts
to go at a fast pace I
will use these clips.
The pacing of the
music will be matched
with the pacing of the
clips, so that it blends.
These will be used
at calm points of
the montage, so
when the music
starts to go at a
slow pace will use
these clips
