The document outlines the pre-production plans for creating a game, including using green and red colors for a scary alien character, using a simple font for readability, and dressing male characters in red to symbolize danger. It discusses the software that will be used such as Photoshop and Premier, and includes a contingency plan for issues like losing work or software problems. A schedule is provided that outlines drawing backgrounds and characters over 8 days, with the goal of adding sound and finalizing the game. Potential health and safety issues are also addressed.

1. Pre-Production
Chelsea Kierans

2. Style sheet
I want to use these colours on my
alien because it shows that it is
bright/different and worth being
scared of. I want to use green
and red for my alien as it shows it
is scary and after revenge. It is
something for the ‘humans’ in
the game to be afraid of.
I like these fonts and will
use one similar, as I like that
it is simple and easy to
read. This makes it simple
for younger people to read
something that could
maybe be more difficult to
read if it was in another
font.
I will be making my
characters from the
start. I want to dress
the men I use in red to
symbolise the danger
that they are in.

6. Contingency Planning
Potential Issue Solution
You loose all your work. Start again, and make sure to back it up to
another memory stick, or emails.
Classes cancelled. Go work in the library or work at home.
Draw characters too big. Draw them smaller the first time around. So
then you aren’t wasting time.
You forget how to use the software used to
make the game.
Ask someone who knows to use it to remind
you how to.

7. Health and Safety
Potential Issue How will the issue be
avoided?
You spill water on the computer and make it
dangerous to touch as it may give you a shock
and be potentially life endangering.
Do not take water in the room unless it is in a
bag and do not take it out the bag unless you
are outside the room.
Backache Sit properly in your chair with a good posture
so prevent backache and future back problems.
Eyes hurting and straining because you have
been at a computer for so long
Take regular rest breaks so your eyes don’t
strain and wear glasses if needed as much as
possible. If you lower or heighten your chair to
the level of the computer then it will be easier
to see.
Tripping over a bag make sure all bags are under the table and that
nothing is where people may walk, as they
could potentially be injured.
