I need to research audience personas and complete the GDD.


I need to research the audience personas. I will do these by using certain sites such as GovProfiles. I will complete the GDD by reading the guidance document and then answering the questions as they come.

3 What is your Learning Task/Assignment for the week? (What are you going to do in the week)

1. Audience Persona’s 2. Development of Ideas

How do you plan to achieve this? (SMART Targets)The goal of my project is to explore thoroughly how low poly modelling can convey emotion and tell a story in as effectively as high poly. So far I have discovered that low poly is a stylistic choice and tells a story within the style itself. Currently I have created various different scenes and have experimented with different assets, styles, colours and number of polys in my models. I have also researched thoroughly fantasy as a genre and what defines it. To further develop my skills and ensure my project is as good as it physically can be I will be experimenting with different tools and techniques to hone my skillset and learn how to work in the environment creation workflow. I will do this by experimenting on certain different areas ranging from asset creation back to environment design. I will transcribe other artists work to lend aid in the creation of my own by improving on my skills and learning new techniques. I feel I am going to need a couple weeks to learn the skills need and then put them to work in the project, due to low poly being more simplistic and less time consuming to make I will be able to spend longer learning new skills and techniques. The most time consuming part for me will be learning all the skills and techniques I need to make what I have in mind. The things that I find out about technique, skills and how to use different modifiers I can put to use immediately to develop my project more as I approach my end goal.


I felt it has gone well and I have produced good work.

Casey: The building you’ve started to make looks more Victorian. I think you should re-think the architectural shapes and textures of the building. I think you should look into rounder buildings or more asymmetrical buildings in shape. I recommend looking into buildings from the stone age or medieval architecture.
