I began and completed task 1, using a variation of different images and written content such as market research and other primary sources for research to
complete the task to the clients expectations. I also looked into character designs, from my main inspiration for the design Hell Boy, and also Crisis and Bleach. I
also included alternate designs that I was going to base my design off and use it as inspiration but I decided to use the other images instead, I have included all
the images that helped me create the character. I also completed some research into the client to make sure I had a good understanding of there

I generated ideas using mind maps and brainstorms and mood boards to get a good idea for the character design I want. I also begun my pitch document this
week.

I presented my document in the pitch and clearly shown my character concept and the story of the character and game information, in the pitch I also shown
market research for the target audience.

Add as required
Task 1 Extension
I also looked into character designs, from my main inspiration for the design Hell Boy,
and also Crisis and Bleach. I also included alternate designs that I was going to base my
design off and use it as inspiration but I decided to use the other images instead, I have
included all the images that helped me create the character. I also completed some
research into the client to make sure I had a good understanding of their history as a
company and to make sure I produced a piece of work that they could graphically relate
to given the genre of games they make.
3. Task 2 Extension
I added more images to show more images that I took my designs from, some of the
images weren’t used as much as others, but I had made plans to make alternate
designs for the client using some of the other images, I also added images in that were
based off my drawings which were used to give me something to go off when designing
my character.
Task 3 Extension
I removed all of the unnecessary images and work that were completed after the pitch
rather than prior to it, The evidence for my pitch is included in the other tasks, and I
had not fully finished the pitch and the work at the time of the pitch.
Task 4 Extension
I completed task 4 during the time extension, prior to the extension I only completed
one table which I thought was all you had to do, this wasn’t the case and I had to
complete another 13 of them during the extension to show which pieces of work I
scheduled to complete on which dates.
Task 5 Extension
I had to update task 5 as I had to show the production on what I had completed and
when I completed it, prior to the deadline I had not fully explained my work, and having
4. needed an extension, I needed to go back and write up what I had added by the last
day.
Task 6 Extension
I improved task 6 simply by adding more evidence of work and how I spent my time in
the tasks, such as designing weapons and alternate character designs which didn’t
make it to the final piece of work.
