Stalking People Pays Off

For Game Design 1 our new project has been to observe people on campus, and whatever parts of their behavior we find the most interesting. This is a short powerpoint of my findings.

Hero Shots - Greybox

Here are my "hero shots" for my 3D level. The next step is for the class to model all of the set items: walls, stairs, trim, pots, barrel, crates and so on. This was definitely a blast, I know a couple of my friends and I came in early to class and played our levels just for the fun of it!

Map Update

Here is my updated map after blocking out the level in UDK:

Map Design

Below is my 2d map for Game Design 1. The Level in UDK has stayed 70% true to the original concept, but after actually making this I have made several revisions on how the dwellings are aligned.  

Freshman Year, Second Semester

Below are my favorite pieces from my second semester at Ringling. 

Charcoal on Charcoal paper with a light graphite under drawing. This project reminded me a lot of my last two years of high school. It has been drilled into me to create less creative pictures as long as they are photo realistic. That is until I met college deadlines. I'm glad I had a chance to slow down and create a more "finished" piece. 

Pen/ink and Marker on Bristol. This was my favorite figure project from freshman year. I had never drawn a sequential piece, and this was just a pure joy to create. 

Harley Davidson + Ferrari = this :) I took my professors advice and just smashed up the kits until something looked cool. The environment is made of 90% concrete. 

Pen/ink and Marker on Bristol. The final piece was colored, and edited on photoshop, but I like the value study more. 

Digital Painting. Salazar was a blast to make. I have always been interested in character design, so this project was a nice surprise. Below is his "turn and take".
