References are very important! Week 2: We continued to learn about the basics of breaking down a vehicle to its most simple shapes. Week 3: Mr Kannan took a look at our sketches for some vehicles and gave feedback. He then explained what our first project was going to be like, having to choose a world and universe to design vehicles for and the process in doing so. Week 4: No class. Week 5: More feedback on our ongoing project sketches, teaching us on how to draw our vehicles in different perspectives by using the tools in the programs we use such as Photoshop. More thumbnailing and idea sketching. Week 6: We now learned about materials and textures and how to apply and paint them onto our vehicles for later on. The focus was on different types of metals. Week 7:

ART DIRECTION

28.03.2022 -  25.06.2022 Haura Laiqa Naznin / 0345050 / Bachelors of Design in Creative Media Art Direction Task 1 LECTURES Week 1: Introduction to what the class was about. We took a look at the art direction in two similar games - Among Us and Goose Goose Duck. Then, we were put into groups in order to create a new art direction for these games, something either similar in gameplay but a different theme or completely different. Week 2: We played the aforementioned games for this class, but not the whole time! Still, it was for educational purposes to help us understand the differences between the games and the pros and cons for each. Week 3: We learned about stylization in games, as well as different styles and themes that different games have versus others. This is to help gain a better understanding to how we want our own remake of Among Us/Goose Goose Duck to be like. Week 4: Now we move on to setting goals for how we want our project to look like. Things such as lighting, set
