Game stuff






Game design stuff ^L^









 
 
 
*I want to keep my background as basic as possible so users concentrate more on the infomation etc. thats being presented to them, if the background was too bold or bright it may clash with other colours or the pokemon itself, the buttons could merge into the colour etc. Although the making the background and buttons simple and in a very straightforward file type format I think in some ways makes is better for my audience, as they are young they don't want to try to hard to find information as they will bore easily and want to get straight to it. (I'm going to try to add a little surprise to make it a little different), although my game isn't that unique the layout will be very different to all the others and the little surprised mentioned earlier will lull young children into a false sense of security and shatter their calm. There isn't a specific genre to this other than it is an index providing infomation, it's a simple idea as I have never made a game before so I should try my hardest to make this work (hopefully) But I hope young children will find it useful and a little bit more fun as it has a deviosu twist. Overall I'm keeping it simple for younger users, hopefully my idea will recieved positively. I know this is not to many peoples tastes and it is a very childish (pathetic) idea for someone of my age, I completely understand this, but I will enjoy and hopefully be at least a little bit happy with its outcome, I have explored other ideas very briefly, I wanted to make it as inapropriate for young children as possible. I wanted to make a nightmare world. It would start off with a young girl falling asleep but as she goes to sleep voices start to whisper soft words then start to scream things, scared she opens her eyes and the world is dark and twisted with corrupt faces and dark malevolent spririts stalking her as she trudges through thick choking fog. Every step she takes creatures of pure evil get closer and closer, trying to consume her soul and use her body as vessel to the over world to cause total annihilation. It ends with the young girl waking up and running to her parents bedroom, only to find thier bodies cold and lifeless, all thier blood and organs drained from thier mouths, the evil had won and as she looks out the window the sky and oceans turn red. She wasn't strong enough to keep them in. She had destroyed everything, and she was the only one left alive, left to live with her guilt until the day she dies. I was going to make this but alas it was too complex for me to make in the short time we had to I've re-evaluated and I'm sticking to my original idea, yes I understand it has flaws and its basic, simple and down right boring, but it suits my strengths (I'm computer illiterate) and I could amke this with minimal hold backs, but for the other idea I would have to spend too much time designing and I would not have time to create anything by the time we finish. I am extremely dissapointed as I feel my idea is stupid but it's all I can do. I hope in the future I will not be so stupid and try something else instead of being childish and lazy.

Script

*crying while cradling his half dead broken stool* Kieran: 'I'm Nick Nicholas and I really need a new stool but no one will help me! I'm so lonely, what should I do?!'

*I hide behind a wall with Ben shielding his face with his coat in front of the bin, the camera looks to us and double takes and steps over* Connor: 'Um, guys, you're not allowed to be here what are you doing?'

*I push Ben forwards* Me: BATMAN ASSEMBLAGE

*Ben runs to Kieran to engage in a heated battle or wits and braun to gain power over the stool, Ben eventually wins and runs off, with Connor close behind. He then looks back at Kieran and I'm gone* Connor: 'What are you doing?! Aren't you going to help? Don't just stand there!'

*He looks around the wall to see where Ben ran off too, only find he has dissapeared* Connor: 'What where did he go?'

*Text on screen* 'After hours of pointless searching'

*Kieran walks into the tech block claiming he saw Ben run into here, when the camera looks down the corridor we see Ben run into the workshop with the stool, so they follow hot on his trail*

Kieran: 'Hey what are you two doing with my stool?!' *Blantantly infruiated and Connor seconds his question with something similar*

Ben: 'Please just can you video this? Um, we're doing a project, we will explain when we do the video, but just please stay and video this for us.'

*Kieran huffs and stamps his feet* Kieran: 'But why with my stool? Can't you get your own? *Ben tries to speak but he keeps getting cut off with Kieran's excessive whinging*

Connor: 'I might as well, I've got nothing better to do all day.' *Kieran looks at him and starts to hurl angry questions at him before storming off the scene*

*Me and Ben thank him graciously and begin recording, with Connor giving us a countdown and a hand signal in* Connor: '3, 2, 1 and we're recording!'

Ben: 'Hi, I'm Benquisha Friedchickenisha NayNay and this is pimp my stool, me and my co-host Amberbaniqua Shayniquakisha NayNay have found a fine example of something not sit worthy and we are gonna show you guys how to do DIY pimping!' *He looks at me as I have to mouth my own name so he can get it right*

*Close up of Ben*

Ben: 'And this is the stool before'

*The camera will switch to a slow full pan of the chair itself and the montage music will slowly fade in and the montage commences after the chair has been shown*

*Ben agains, the same shot as earlier*

Ben: 'And this is the stool after'

*The finish product will have the same panned view as before but this time different music will be played, perhaps something over the top and silly*

*The video ends with credits*



























Video evaluation

Considering I think my video went very well, my crew worked very hard on achieving my ideas and contributed some very good ideas of their own, the costumes fitted well, the dialogue I was pleased with (Apart from my own) but, I think if I thought this out a little more and had more time to edit the story in the video could of have made far more sense. Which lets it down hugely an it a very awful flaw in this, and I feel like, in this apsect of it, I've not only let myself down but my crew also, I have not done them justice and I should of worked harder on it. I should have used my time better and done a very strict time script and done it through one take, I would have achieved a much better result and a much sleeker finish. But again, I'm pleased with the song I have, it fits well with my little montage, but again, the montage was pretty pointless too, I didn't have the video I needed to finish it as I desperately needed to edit otherwise I would have been far worse off, but what's done is done I suppose. I feel that my editing skills were shabby, I have just used a little text and graphics to fill in the blanks I have, which is very dissapointing and probably an appauling way of trying to cover things up. Again this is another major flaw in my film and I think I should have worked much harder to fix that. But I did manage to use all the film needed to make a vague story line and it does seem to link up partially. I personally feel that if i was to put this on any website people would want it removed and pick it apart for all it's worth (which isn't much) and I now know that in the future I need to plan better and put far more effort into my filming to gain the perfection I'm looking for, or perhaps even get close to what I want. So in conclusion, I'm incredibly pleased with how well my crew worked with me and each other as a team, but I feel like I have let them down with my poor editing skills and directing expertise, so I must work on these things to make sure they aren't made fools of by me.

What people think of my video

Ben: I enjoyed the video. It was entertaining and fun to be a part of. I loved the idea of pimp my stool and it was very funny.

Keiran: The video is AMAZING!!!!!!! The idea, although being a parody, is so original, and the costumes are hilarious! I really like it, and enjoyed watching it.

Connor: K dat was AMAZING!! i loved the montage part, the music was awesome, it really suited the video! ARU!


(Awwwh thanks you guys >///< ^L^)

My audience (I suppose)

I would think that my audience would be young people, most probably people who use youtube a lot, so aged between about 13-19 at the most, because of its obscure humour, it's not to everyone tastes as it would be described as marmite, you either love it or hate it, although not everyone would fit this stereotyped age group, because I would imagine my father (aged 34) would throughly enjoy this video, but I think it would work best on youtube because people could give me thier opinions etc. and I could then work on what the viewers want from thier comments. But to conclude this rant, I would say a younger audience would be best suited to my latest video.

I have a crew now!

Kieran - Actor and second camera man
Ben - Main actor
Myself - Main actor
Connor - Main camera man
That is all.
