Shooter Game Icon Review

What I did for this icon was I drew a skull and a revolver pistol and the intended idea was to have the skull in the middle and have the revolver underneath crossing over another one just like the checkered flags in my racing icon and having a yellow background because it stands for alertness and awareness.

having the guns cross over was quite difficult because at one point the guns didn't look right so i had to get the colours right and make it look more realistic than a rubbish gun.

This is the finished icon.

Fantasy & Racing Game Icon Review

I know its not easily visible but it was OK on Photoshop.

On both of these I went over them in Photoshop adding different colours and making them look better. 

This is two of my concept drawings for my icons these two are racing and fantasy, the sword, shield and staff are the fantasy icon which was intended to have a purple background to symbolize magic with the shield made of wood with metal trimming.

The staff was designed to be made out of wood  and the sword to have a gold handle, all to be the typical shield  swords and staffs.

For the racing Icon I did a checkered flag and copied it and flipped it so that it crossed over with the other flag and then I went over the drawing and adding a blue background that represents racing because this colour blue represents respect.

it was fairly easy to make only a few problems when drawing the flag, only because it wasn't how I imagined it.

Sci-fi Game Icon Review

This is the drawing I did for my Sci-fi Icon which was a snake because that is what the logo would be for the space troopers featured in the game, I made it green to symbolize the typical green martians or just the typical alien.
This is my finished icon for this genre.

stop motion back ground

this is the background that I have used in our Stop Motion animation which was simply done by getting a picture off Google of a normal street and adding some zombies in the distance and adding the crawler zombie, the smoke and fires were added is well by using layers and tweaking it to look more realistic, the Pikachu is just random and the billboard is just better than is offering double glazing at a time like this, the only bit I don't like about it is the Zombies in the background because a search engine blocker called JANET wouldn't let me get a picture of a group of Zombies because of the word Zombie (acceptable in Primary School) so I wasn't able to get proper zombies with leg so there is some drunken people at a rave floating through the ground which is close enough.

Stop Motion Week 2

On Friday what we did towards our stop motion was finished the actual animation and started working on the titles and credits, and named our team "The Tyrants" and each person in our group needs to come up with their own version of the animation and a group finished one.

Stop Motion in Progress

We have started the production of the stop motion animation but we have encountered a few problems such as we didn't have a lot of the resources such as a model motor bike and model zombies or a ordinary action figure so what we do have is some clay and a few power ranger models and a batman model.

What we did for the zombie was made a crawler out of clay and made a bigger one out of clay which we have named a tank which was used in Left for Dead and so far we have only done about half of the animation in three hours that we had on Friday. Next Friday we will continue with the animation and try to complete it so that the Friday after we can focus on the voices and sounds.

Stop Motion

Stop Motion is a animation created by taking pictures and putting them all together to create a video, most stop motion is done with clay and objects that don't move on their own for example the childrens sketch morph is a clay made person who can change into a ball to move and also dissapear into the floor.

Wallace and Gromit is a stop motion animation created by Nick Park featuring a man called Wallace and his pet dog called Gromit Wallace is a inventor who loves Wensleydale cheese and has released many films with and without Wallace & Gromit and has dedicated a lot of time to make these stop motion animations.

Unit 13 Professional Practice - Show reel Review

what I did was I commented on all of the show reel videos and rated them, my favorite video was the one with the teleports and a spaceship under the college.

These Aren't Mine.

My second favorite one was the Red Hawk video that I liked because of the lighting and the not so deadly roof trap and the glowing rocks.

This one is tied with second so there isn't a least favorite, some brilliant work done in these videos for second year college students.

3D I Haven't Shown

This is a space ship I created in 3D Studio Max a while ago but never put on my blog it was one of the first models I made by joining two cylinders together and doing a bit of extra jigger y poker y and I have ended up with this.
What could make it better is texturing it with a futuristic look, a cockpit with a animation of it in action I could also add more detail such as bits of engines sticking out, better wings with maybe a animation of it flying around shooting other spaceships, or simply a spaceship race.

Stop motion Animation

We are in a group of four to create a stop motion animation using any idea we want and in my group star me Lawrence and our team leader Tony and what our animation will be about is a guy riding a bike and falling off and ending up fighting Zombies and finished with him getting eaten by a Zombie.
What we need to make this happen:


red plasticine

Zombie figures or figures to be zombies

toy bike

a main character

background (city)

toy cars (crashed)

cat
