Design process

Design Process

Discovering

For this project the brief was to come up with a interactive narrative using Flash. I looked at many different interactive narratives while trying to come up with an idea, my first idea was a police line with a choice of who to shoot but I thought this was too simple and would get very boring very quickly. My second idea was making breakfast in the morning giving you a choice of what to make such as cereal, toast and pancakes. I then discarded this idea as well as there could be too many variables and could get very confusing and long. The best idea came to me when I was traveling to university. Because I live in Sutton it takes me about an hour to get to Nottingham and there are many different ways of getting there I thought this would be a good idea as it also relates to the course and agusting to student life.

Developing

So now I had an idea and I thought even with a simple idea like mine it could still get very complicated so I drew up a plan of how I was going to do this I started with a map of which slide would go to which depending on which button you press. I then planned out what text would be on each slide and a list of what photos needed to be taken

Defining

We were given a basic template for Flash and my tutor explained about being given a script and building on it to make something completely different, so this is what I did. I broke down the basics of the template and added my images, text and edited the scripted to make it match my narrative and go in the order I need for my piece.

Even with a plan this got very complicated but after trial and error with the scripted I finally finished. Nut after uploading it to Deviantart I realized a few spelling and grammar mistakes and had to go back and correct these errors.

Delivery

I haven’t had any feedback from my tutors yet but I have shown my parents and peers and have had very positive comments although they would be very bias. I am looking forward to the feedback from my lectures so I can develop further on this project and further projects.

another pixelation

At the beginning of the pixelation project we were put in groups tocome up with a set of photos i then abanded that idea i did my own but now that ive done am going to try and make something with those photos but use a diffrent program to do it to see the diffrence. the program am going to use is imovie which is another mac app i've never used it before so it will be fun to see how it goes.



This is my finished pixelation project i really injoyed using premiere its really simple and fun to do. am please with how this turned out. I made the track to this in garage band which is a mac app.

I ve come up with an idea for my pixelation project, my plan is to use the game snake so by starting with a game boy playing a game and the game comes out of the console and moves around the room and interact with the environment.

had to put this in made me laugh that it was banned cuz apparetely too violent

To be honest am having trouble coming up with a idea for the pixalation thing but i was thinking about using toys just like robot chicken not sure if this is allowed because think we have to use people i geuss i have to ask.



So after going to the pixalation class the first thing it remindered me of was tim burtons work. I was very excited to hear we would be doing this sort of thing as i have been a fan of Tim Burtons work for a while.

You ve all most likely seen this but i just find it amazing, and it wasnt done by computers
