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, setting, UX/UI design and colour palettes.

Week 5: We showed our initial proposal, our very bare-bones idea to the teacher who will give us more ideas and pointers to get a better grasp and concept for our project.

Week 6: Public Holiday.

Week 7: After further working on our initial concepts, we now have a finalized idea on what our project was going to look like. Then we had a proper presentation to the class about said ideas.

Week 8: Independent learning week.

Week 9: Continuing to work on our projects, following the project timeline that each group created.

Week 10: Progression check.

Week 11: Public Holiday.

From week 12 onwards, we continued to work on our project based on the project timeline I created.

MAJOR PROJECT

28.08.2023 -  04.12.2023 Haura Laiqa Naznin / 0345050 / Bachelors of Design in Creative Media Major Project INSTRUCTIONS   WEEK 1-3   For our final year project, we were given two choices: one was to either base it off of our dissertation or to do something entirely new. For me, I decided to have it related to my dissertation which was about representation. My main idea was to have a protagonist that other animated movies seem to lack, specifically hijabi representation. This made me think about including my culture into the idea and representing it through the characters and environment. After having some more thought I landed on creating an animation story concept for my final year project. For the first feedback session, I was consulted by Mr. Asrizal and he gave me some pointers to be more specific about what I wanted to represent from my culture. Was it the creatures? The people? I had to think more about that before proceeding with my idea, which he seemed fine with. He t

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:

2023 PDW Reflection Report

 26/10/2023 PDW Reflection Report During the beginning of week 8, I was looking forward to attending the webinars that were organized by our lecturers and Mr. Izwal. The ones that I have chosen were focused on tips in the workplace and interviews as well as insights into the creative industry. One of the few companies that helped put it all together were Allianz, GSK and C47 Creative. The reasons why I chose those specifically were because I had my worries when it came to choosing jobs or internships in the future and the processes that would follow it. Interviews are very common, if you were unlucky and didn't get hired on the spot! It was one aspect that I always felt nervous about when I thought about having to do them in the future, so obtaining advice from the very professionals who conducted them was going to prove very valuable to me. During all of the webinars, I made sure to write down notes that seemed important to me and to screenshot any information that I thought could
