1. The document describes the process of designing a magazine cover and inside pages to look realistic. Research was done on existing gaming magazines to understand common design elements.
2. For the cover, key elements like the title, logo, issue number, and main story were placed in typical locations. Photos from a game provided a professional background.
3. The inside pages also aimed to look realistic based on research. A background photo related to the featured game. Text boxes and ratings were placed over the photo in a style consistent with the cover. Details like page numbers and fonts maintained realism.
The document describes the layouts of five different areas in a video game level: an arcade, streets, a teleport store, a warehouse, and the moon. Each area contains different objects, buildings, and terrain to immerse the player in the setting. For example, the streets area includes several buildings, cars, trash cans holding collectibles, and background images to give the illusion of a larger cityscape. Soundtracks, sound effects, and minimal dialogue are also outlined to enhance the gameplay experience in each unique environment.
Game Maker is an easy to use point-and-click interface that allows the design of retro-style 8-bit games with characters, scenes, props and enemies. Program requires some programming but makes learning easier and can compile games into installable files. Sploder is a web-based tool for 8-bit games but requires an internet connection. Unity is a cross-platform engine that can be used to create detailed 3D games and levels, allowing improved storytelling through 3D animations.
The document describes the characters, locations, costumes, and props for a game. There are eight main characters and several secondary characters, though only two are introduced in the first level for mystery. The main character's name is not revealed until the end. Motion capture could be used to animate characters but manual animation may be needed instead. The six initial locations include an arcade, future street, teleport station, warehouse, and moon landscape. Costumes include a casual long coat and armored time assassin outfit. Important props are a futuristic portal, weapons, an arcade machine, and a teleportation panel.
The document discusses potential age ratings for the author's video game based on an analysis of similar games and audience research. The author considers ratings from both the PEGI (European) and ESRB (American) systems. Based on a game similar to the author's (Crysis 3) receiving an 18 rating for its realistic violence and language, the author thinks an 18 rating may be appropriate. However, a survey of friends found that most would play a game with an 18 rating. The author will need to review the content descriptors and categories of both rating systems to determine the most suitable rating.
The document discusses the cover designs of several video games and magazines. It analyzes design elements like fonts, color schemes, images and layouts. Key points include:
1) Game covers like Portal 2 effectively portray the game through simple visuals like characters and portals. Magazine covers stand out with bold background images and use of color schemes associated with their console brand.
2) Designs are inspired by retro games like Pac-Man and Space Invaders for their recognizable fonts and use of bold borders. Game covers also portray the tone and themes of the game through characters and environments.
3) Magazine layouts emphasize detailed background images and utilize different fonts and text styles for visual interest. They advertise upcoming
The Batman Arkham trilogy is considered one of the best video game trilogies due to its rich storyline, memorable characters, and thrilling gameplay. The trilogy consists of Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, and Arkham Origins, which tell an epic story over the course of one night as Batman battles his greatest enemies like the Joker. The games are praised for making the player feel like Batman through the fighting system and wide array of side missions and collectibles.
The document discusses two video game trilogies - the Batman Arkham trilogy and the Tomb Raider reboot trilogy. It summarizes the storylines and key events of each game in the trilogies. It also discusses gameplay elements like combat systems and character representations that made each trilogy engaging. Additionally, it examines the Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and details how it was pioneering for its open world design that placed the player's created character at the center of the story.
This document discusses various literary and narrative theories that could be applied to a science fiction video game story. It describes Roland Barthes' five codes for creating mystery and tension in narratives. It also outlines Claude Levi-Strauss' structuralism theory and Tzvetan Todorov's five-step narrative pattern of equilibrium, disruption, realization, restored order, and new equilibrium. The document proposes applying these theories to the story of a "Time Assassin" character who is sent on assignments that create disequilibrium according to Todorov's model, before order is restored and the cycle repeats if a sequel is made. Barthes' codes could also be employed to add plot twists, mysteries, and tension to
1.) How does your media product challenge forms and conventions of real media...quantumdominic
The media product challenges conventions through its opening titles and soundtrack.
The opening titles for the fictional distributors "Network Films" and "Digital Bravado Productions" were designed to look professionally produced and realistic through animated wire movements and 3D metal textures.
Soundtracks from the video game Assassin's Creed were used appropriately based on the situation, such as music for running scenes and future/pressure scenes. Sound effects were also added precisely in post-production to emphasize actions like digging or punching and make the film feel more realistic.
This document outlines the production timeline and process for filming a movie. It details various location scouting trips in January 2015 and filming sessions throughout February 2015 at Needham Lakes, Rendlesham Forest, and local heath lands. The filming included establishing shots, slow motion footage, and modern day scenes. Editing and digitally grading of footage occurred concurrently. Feedback was gathered from intended audiences to improve the opening sequence, which was completed and uploaded to YouTube by early March 2015. Resources used included costumes, props, camera equipment, transportation, audiences for feedback, and editing software.
1. Synopsis: Film 1: Assassin’s Creed 3 Hunted
The film starts immediately, a fade in of a deer footprint, the camera focuses on the print, and then in the corner of the screen we
see the foot of our main character. He feels the deer print and tracks the deer, clearly an expert. The camera changes so we see the
character, amid shot doesn’t reveal everything but enough to leave mystery. The camera then looks at a deer standing in a field; the
character raises his bow, and shoots the deer. He approves the deer and begins to cut it open to collect supplies then suddenly stops.
Seconds later he dodges to the found as a bullet narrowly misses him. He sprints for the trees as a Templar begins the chase. Having
a head start Connor escapes into the trees, able to look down and kill his attacker. Suspense as he waits then sees the Templar below
him. He hasn’t noticed our Connor. Connor jumps down to air assassinate the Templar, only to be stopped, in a swift maneuver the
Templar stops Connor and has initiated a fight. Connor reveals the tomahawk from his belt, and swings around intimidating his
enemy with the expression of skill.
A fight takes place in which Connor swims the tomahawk several times, each time the Templar blocks it with his blade. Finally
Connor’s tomahawk is swung out of his hand and lands several meters away. Connor then drops a swift attack from the Templar, and
swings a punch at his head. Several hits later the Templar is dizzy close to fainting. Connor finishes him with the hidden blade.
After the fight, Connor collects his tomahawk, and begins to search the Templar. He finds the Templar’s necklace and a scroll. Picking
up the scroll reveals it is a death warrant for Connor from the leader of the Templars. It is now he realizes he is being hunted. Connor
moves away revealing the title of the film behind him. The following scene is a series of shots as Connor runs and swings through eh
vast forest heading to Boston. Each time the camera suddenly switches to a close up of Connor foot running past a tree log, the text
of Director, Cast, or producer appear. Finally his camera rises up and revealing how far he must travel to Boston.
Time passes and Connor is there, he walks through him bustling streets to tavern. Entering the tavern he walks to the bar and orders
a drink. Shortly an ally appears and their conversation leads to Connor traveling to a burned down house of a messenger. The
messenger delivered the warrant to the Templar; clearly they are tying up loose ends. Connor searches the remains until he finds a
secret doorway, it opens and he enters a small cavern. There is a chest and inside it is a list of names and locations of seven Templars
he had to deliver the warrant to. Taking the list Connor leaves the remains and returns to the tavern. Connor plans what he should
do next, since he is now the hunted as opposed to the hunter. Seven Templars plan to kill him, so he thinks of an idea. He will kill
them before they get the chance to kill him. And he will kill their leader, the person he gave them the warrant. Connor asks around
the tavern for leads about the dead messenger, they all said he spent a lot of time in a windmill not far from here. Connor travels to
the windmill and finds the Templar symbol on the door handle. Connor readies his tomahawk and enters the windmill. It was empty,
a few crates here and there but it was completely empty. Suddenly Connor senses something, someone is hanging above him. In
seconds Connor swims round and misses the air assassination. He through his tomahawk and it lodges itself in the attacks shoulder
and into the wall, the Templar is stuck. Connor grabs the tomahawk and moves it slightly the Templar screams. Connor integrates the
Templar and only gets information that the messenger revived the chest and his orders from a merchant in New York. Connor kills
the Templar, takes their necklace, but there was no warrant, this was not one of the seven Templars.
2. Time passes as Connor travels by boat to New York. As he approaches the city a boat from a red cross on its white sails appeared in
the distance. It was a Templar ship. The attack happed quickly, cannon balls fired and the Templar ship damaged the Aquila, Connors
ship. Connor boarded the Templar ship and kills the crew then fights the captain. Connor swings the captain’s sword so it and the
Templars hand get caught in a hook, Connor kicks a lever and the Templar and Connor whom holds onto the same rope are
catapulted height up ion the mast. Connor swiftly kicks the Templar off the rope and he falls far and lands on the Aquila. Connor uses
the same method and jumps down. The last words of the Templar were bearing. Connor takes the necklace and a warrant; this was
he third of the Templars, the captain.
Connor enters New York and finds the merchant. They talk and the merchant reveals he will do any deeds for a price, therefore he
would send the messenger to deliver the warrants. The merchant will not tell Connor the identity of the Templar leader, and Connor
leaves the merchant unconscious since he was no help. When he steps outside he I surrounded by 50 redcoats. Quickly he drops a
smoke bomb and climbs the roof. He runs the rooftops and escapes the redcoats. Suddenly he was thrust off the building into a
haystack. Whoever pushed him landed next to Connor and pressed the sword against his neck. Connor swiftly uses his hidden bade
and catches the sword, turns it and stabs the Templar. He repeatedly stabs the Templar till he falls and dies. Connor takes the warrant
and the necklace then leaves swiftly; with no leads and information Connor was at risk of dying and had no way to escape his
warrant. Two Templars had been defeated but 5 remain. He looks at the list, and finds that one Templar was, a politician in the New
York City. The sun had almost left the sky, so Connor began traveling to the politician area. Dozens of people gathered around the
courthouse and entered and left, he decided his should maybe be assassins and sneak to his kill. Connor travels to the roof and finds
a dislodged tile, he pulls away and finds some panels, cutting through them ad crumbing through, he was in the courthouse,
sneaking he travels through rooms and climbs over beams till he reaches a huge room and several stages with people yelling. Staring
intently he notices a Red Cross necklace on the opposite side of the room, the Templar? Someone yelling his name confirms this.
Running across the beams high up Connor travel behind the Templar and jumps down to a room above the hall to view the goings
on. Fortunately o one was there so he travels to the stairs and walks down. A crowd of people acted as cover so he walked up so he
was directly behind the Templar, and stabbed him from behind. The way Connor killed him left the Templar standing for several
seconds. Connor ripped the necklace of the neck of the Templar and left the room. Climbs the stairs and after hearing screams of
people yelling murder. Runs for the window. He jumps through it and lands in the streets. Not too far was his boat, so he ran to the
harbour. Connor sees his boat but it was being swarmed by redcoats. Connor joins the fight and kills the attacking guards. He then
quickly drives the boat out of the harbour.
3. Connor returns to Boston. Four Templars remain but he has no leads only names and places of work. One Templar had no job but his
location was the frozen wastelands of north America. Perhaps the Templar would be there, or perhaps it would be a tarp, either way
Connor set sail
The air grew cold and finally Connor made his way to the location. The ship graveyard. Several shipwrecks frozen in time remained
there. And in the heart of them a wooden house had been built. It was a remarkable shipwreck fortress and the only way to get in
was to climb to the peak of a frozen ship and swing to the other to get close enough to the main ship and the cabin. Connor did so
with difficulty, it was cold and his fingers hurt. Finally he reached the roof of the house. And swung through he window. With shatter
Connor reveals his pistol and tomahawk, three men were there with muskets, he killed them. The last laughed and said you fool.
Huge explosions were heard, Connor looked out the window to se that all the cannons on the ships were still functional and were all
firing at the Aquila. Connor could see that his crew were leaving the ship and dicing into the water. There was no way to escape.
Connor desperately ran to a cannon on this ship, and fired at barrels of oil in the other frozen ships. Several explosions later, the crew
travelled to the ships Connor was on and they stayed there. This was a trap because a huge Man onward ship approached them. It
opened fire on the fortress. and while the crew kept cover away from the cannon fire, after the attack a lot of people had died and
there was no escape. The man of war docked and emptied its crew onto the ice, led by three Templars, a redcoat, a fighter, and the
Templar he resides in the wastelands, followed by a hundred redcoats. This was going to end quickly, no escape for them. Connor
then told his crewed to fire anything at the attackers, while he quickly ran to the man of war away from the attackers. It was a race,
Connor swum and climbed through the remains until he got to the huge ship. He boarded it and killed the crew. Quickly he spun the
boat so their cannons pointed at the attackers. Several had been killed but not a lot of Connors crew remained. Connor then lit a
wooden pole and ran to the side of the cannons, the ignition rope had been it and they all fired. Connor went down to the second
room in the ship and repeated this firing. There third and last row of cannons fired and only the two Templars and thirty Templars
remained. Connor then prepared some rope to some oil barrels in the hull of the ship. As the attacks now travelled back to the ship,
Connor lit the barrels and ran as fast as he could away from the barrels. He jumped off the ship and back onto the reigns before. A
huge explosions demolished the man of war, and killed all but the two Templars. Connor lay unconicues and awoke later only to see
the two Templars approaching him quickly. They were both injured but still dangerous. Connor picked up his tomahawk and hidden
blade them ran towards them. In series of hits and blocks Connor killed there two Templars and took their warrants and necklaces.
The third and dead Templar was lodged into the ice, a cannonball had crushed his head. Connor took that necklace too. When he
retuned a lot of his crew war age and they had found small ship, big enough to take them to mainland. One last Templar remained
and Connor was angry. So he decided once he had reached mainland to make himself a huge target.
A week later Connor had attacked eight redcoat camps around the frontier and consequently saved several native American tribes in
doing so. Still no sign of the last Templar.
4. He stayed several nights in a tribe house. He was in a way at home with his truw people, but on one night the tribe was attacked and
burned down. Connor was no guilty he was responsible for the death of this tribe. He was awoken by smoke and lef the house bfore
he was stabbed in the lower back by a Templar. he was very old and an injured man. Connor fired a pistol in the chest of the old
Templar ignoreing the injury. Taking the necklace and warrant before, picking up a wood ion fire, and placing it on the leg of the
Templar. the old man screamed and reaveled where connor may find where the head Templar was. The leader of te Templar was an
ally of the old man before he was betrayed and therefore had anger insie of him for revenge against the leader Templar. the head
Templar was in the countryside ina mansion heavily guarded. Connor travelled here and with the help of his crew and some ally
assassins killed anyone who stood in their way. The leader tempalr stood behind his desk, strangely behind his posh chair in a way as
if to through the chair at them f they walked towards him. When everyone entered the room lead by connor, the head tempalr
swung th back of the chair forward so it clicked and folded reveain some sort of gun that appeared to fire several rounds at once. He
spryed his attackers with bullets. They took cover behind desks and walls. Some were killed connor reached for a fallen long shield
froma suit of armour in the Templars office and walkesd otwrds thetemplar. The bullets bounced of the dhosld, only a few hit
connor. Connor began to pik uphis pace and ran at the Templar leader bullets till shooting. Then throwing the shield at the gun he
ran at a wall, ran uop afaingst it swung on alamp and swung his tomahawk in the head of the head tempalr. Before he dided the head
Templar spoke off the rise of the teplars before dying. Connor was no longer hunted and had escaped his attackers, he was an
assassin.
