Initial Plans

Initial Reaction
My initial reaction to this task did not really include many ideas, I
was very unsure what I wanted to do for my final production but
none the less I began to think about what type of game that I
would like to make and themes I could produce my game
around. My first experiment idea was about experimenting with
other cycles different to a walking cycle, so I decided I'd
experiment with throwing. Which I would maybe implement in
my final production.

Mood Board
Mood Board Analysis
Is there any repetition in the images you have collected?
Repeated colours/images styles/fonts/tone/mood
There is a common theme of the colors blue and green so the safe option for my final
production is to implament that. The styles of them is very cartoony which is
something I can definitely try and none of the games I have in my mood board look
realistic and provide a realistic situation. They all include collecting/picking up some
form of object.
How will your mood board influence your final product?
My mood board will influence the color scheme and my ideas for the final production.
Having done my mood board I feel I have a slightly better understanding and a
broader idea of what I wish to produce as my final production for this task.
