This document provides a template for Lewis Brady to create a glossary of video game design and video game terms. For each term, Lewis must research the definition, provide the source URL, and describe how the term relates to his own video game production practice. He must also include an image or video example for each term. The glossary contains terms such as demo, beta, alpha, pre-alpha, gold, debug, automation, white-box testing, bug, vertex shader, pixel shader, post-processing, rendering, normal map, entity system, and UV map.
Task 6
The document discusses three constraints related to 3D modeling: polygon count and file size, which impact performance and memory usage; and rendering time, which affects the speed of displaying and interacting with 3D models.
Unit 6 addressing audiences lewis brady
The Last of Us is a survival horror game set in a post-apocalyptic world where players must scavenge for supplies and weapons while conserving ammunition. The dark, depressing tone depicts ruined cities and characters develop through an engaging narrative. Gameplay follows a linear path through 15 stages as players progress from area to area.
Just Dance is a dance simulation game where players match their movements to on-screen choreographies and are scored based on accuracy. Its bright, colorful content aims to put players in a positive mood for efficient gameplay. Progression relies solely on correctly mimicking dance positions to accumulate points in short gameplay bursts.
Character profile
Sgt. John Ranger is a former mercenary who witnessed horrific human experiments conducted by the secretive I.E.A organization. This led him to join G.B.I.S.T to help contain a virus outbreak. As the virus spread, John rose in the ranks through his determination. By 2018, he was leading clearance squads in London when the city came under attack by huge hordes of infected. John's mission to evacuate government members failed when the parliament building was overrun by more of the giant infected creatures.

Cecil Kim began his career designing levels for the video game Parasite Eve. He later spent 2.5 years designing levels for Final Fantasy IX in Hawaii. Kim then joined Sony Santa Monica Studio in 2000 and worked on games such as Twisted Metal Black and God of War.

Ig2 task 1 work sheet lewis brady copy
The document provides definitions for key terms related to sound design and production. It includes a template for the student, Lewis Brady, to research definitions of glossary terms and describe their relevance to his own production practice. He provides definitions for 15 terms from sources like Wikipedia, along with brief explanations of how some of the terms like Foley artistry and sound libraries relate to improving audio quality in his game production and using SoundCloud.
Task 1
3D modeling has applications in many industries such as gaming, film, education, engineering, architecture, product design, and more. In gaming, early 3D games like Crash Bandicoot helped popularize the technology. Film uses 3D modeling for characters and scenes as well as motion capture. Education utilizes 3D printing of modeled objects. Engineering and architecture find 3D modeling useful for visualizing designs of vehicles, buildings, and structures before construction.

Lewis brady engine terminology (edited version)
This document is a glossary created by Lewis Brady containing terms related to video game design and video game testing. It includes definitions for terms like demo, beta, alpha, pre-alpha, gold, debug, automation, white-box testing, bug, vertex shader, and pixel shader. For each term, Brady provides a short definition from an online source, describes how the term relates to his own video game production practice, and includes one or two video or image links showing the term in use within a game. The purpose of the glossary is to research and gather definitions for specific video game terms using an provided template.
Graphics types
Pixel art involves creating raster images that can be edited pixel by pixel, often found in 2D videogames and on mobile devices. Concept art in games can be abstract or expressive to convey feel and style, rather than just realistic. Textures are used to make game characters and objects appear more realistic, though this effect is different for games like Minecraft. Background graphics, also called themes, are images displayed on a monitor. Print media art involves transferring ink from a matrix or screen to paper, and is used for game packaging artwork.
Response theories
The document summarizes several response theories that were developed to explain how audiences interact with and are influenced by media messages:
1) The Hypodermic Needle Theory from the 1920s-1930s suggests media messages are directly "injected" into passive audiences' brains.
2) The Inoculation Model proposes supplying information to audiences beforehand to make them more resistant to future messages.
3) The Two-Step Flow Model asserts that media information flows from media to opinion leaders to the general public in two stages.
4) Uses and Gratifications Theory examines how audiences actively use media to fulfill various needs and gratifications.
5) Reception Theory understands that audiences play an essential role
Ha7 task 2
The author conducted a quantitative survey about the video game GTA 5 by sharing it on Facebook but did not receive many responses. They acknowledge that distributing surveys on Facebook does not guarantee responses. In the future, the author would prefer to use a qualitative survey approach to obtain more detailed feedback from fewer people, such as by distributing the survey via email where response rates may be higher.

Concept art production stages
The document describes the stages of developing concept art for a character. It started with designing the character's body armor and making refinements. Background elements like a brick wall, fence, and buildings were then added to make the setting look more atmospheric. Colors and lighting were adjusted to give a dull, military-like and creepy feel. Over multiple stages, more details were added like bullet holes, debris on the walls, and zombie hordes in the distance. Different zombie designs and destruction elements were incorporated to finalize the character concept art.
Robot designs
This document discusses two robot designs. While the details of each design are not provided, the document lists two separate robot designs for consideration or comparison. In a very concise manner, the document outlines two robot designs without elaborating on the specifics of either option.
Review
The document summarizes an animation assignment where the student created 3 animation sequences of a character doing actions like walking and fighting. While the quality could be improved and the original intentions were more complex, the student is pleased with the results given the short deadline and their lack of animation experience.
