2. Style sheet
I want to use the Mass Effect font because its
iconic to the Mass Effect branding and franchise.
Bold, easy to see, easy to remember and relate to
franchise
Gives off ‘Space Genre’ so people know what its
about
simple so its easy to read
This is the official mass effect Poster/cover
Its dark, with the only light behind commander shepard
Seran (seen at the top of the poster) is ominous as he
looms over the rest of the cover with only his eyes
showing,
Ships fly off to the side signifying it’s a Sci-fi Game

•
Music in time with dialog and scenes this makes the trailer flow better
•
Action packed so it shows there is plenty of action throughout the whole
game
•
3d animated text screen for logo makes it professional, and can be made/
customised for the theme of the trailer
•
Inspired by suicide squad trailers so its similar to them
•
Music stops at awkward moments making them funny
•
Shows how crazy the characters are

4. Commander Shepard fan art
•
Colourful so it stands out and brings
out the character
•
Its very abstract and artistic so its not
very realistic and gives it much more
freedom on what it can do
•
Its very messy and the armor is worn
showing its been through combat

5. Layout 1
•
Commander Shepard is in
the centre so its easy to tell
she’s the main character
•
The Mass Effect Logo is
there so you know what it is
and it’s the second thing you
pay attention too
•
Its very messy and been
through combat showing its
an action game

6. Layout 2
•
The Reapers loom over
the poster and the title,
making them seem
imposing
•
I have only used 2
colours, red and black,
not including the logo so
it looks very ominous.
•
The title is very clear so
its easy to read and
remember
•
The reapers are red
signifying that they are
the bad guys, creating a
sense of fear and doom

8. Contingency Planning
Potential Issue Solution
Corrupted files keep backups
Losing work make sure I save
running out of time keep track of time
Copyright clearance I could email Bioware for Legal permission to
use their franchise
Manufacturing ran out of stock I would have to find another manufacturer to
print my shirts
Print font problems Most printers use PDF Files but it requires the
font to be installed… i could send them a file
with the font install
Cost I would have to work out the selling cost and
the manufacturing cost to make sure there isnt
a loss
Printing deadlines The printing company would have to meet the
deadlines for printing the posters

9. Health and Safety
Potential Issue How will the issue be
avoided?
eye strain taking breaks the recommended screen break
time is every hour and a half
Back Ache good posture, a range of furniture is available
from lumber supports to help relax and not stay
in the same position for too long
Repetitive strain injury take breaks also possibly buy a wrist support
Electric Devices Make sure they are safe for use, and PAT
tested where possible.
Wires and Trip Hazards make sure all wires and potential trip hazards
are tied away for safety, where this is not
possible think about tape or ramp type cover.
