Week 2

For week 2, I actually did some work and finished the project. Usually, this is where things start to fall off and I begin to get behind, but I was actually able to complete the project and finish the Asset project. I decided to chose one of the 'crystal' silhouettes to iterate on, and I ended up going with this iteration for my final piece. I did, however, experiment with doing an iteration of one of the potions, but I found it to be a little too difficult to do to the standard I'd like.



After finishing iteration pieces on the crystal, I went and created a 3D model. While we hadn't been introduced to this yet, I do have experience with 3D modelling and wanted to take advantage of that. The result was a useful model that I could make use of in my model sheet, as it helped get the proper perspective and consistency that I wouldn't have achieved by doing it without the model.

Task 5 (Fairytales and their uses)

There are thousands of games out there that can fit into some of Propp's functions - which one to pick, however, I had difficulty doing. I decided to pick a game that isn't too well known for it's story (in fact, it's a little criticised for its story) due to it's 'cookie cutter' ideas and presentation. This means that it should fit quite well into Propp's functions, and that game is Destiny 2 (the base game, not the expansions).  The set up is rather typical for modern action games. The player, returning from an unknown mission, comes to the home city to find it being invaded by an unknown enemy force. After landing and fighting through a variety of forces, the player discovers that the one leading the assault is on a large ship. After encountering the main villain, the player is defeated, stripped of their powers and left for dead. Afterwards, the player leaves to retrieve their powers and figure out a way to defeat the main villain, which they do, ...

Week 8

For the final week, I only did a couple of things. This is where I started worrying about the work I needed to produce (not just artwork, but also journal work, which I hadn't been keeping up with), and started thinking about extensions. However, while worrying about that, I did manage to do some work, and wasn't absolutely horribly behind like I usually am. I created a little drawing deciding on the back of the character, where I imagined her having spider legs being able to protrude from her back. Along with that, I also created the start of the model sheet (the front view) and the character sheet drawings. Design Doll was heavily useful for this, especially with the Character Sheet, as i wouldn't be able to do anything as interesting in terms of poses without the use of the software. However, this was when I realised I was behind. It may not seem like it from this journal, but I had done no journal work and barely any of the tasks or essay. Because of that, I ha...
