Simluated client brief, designs and storyboards

First of all, a copy of my proposal (I had issues with the dropbox, and I know this is late, sorry).

Download (password is 'uni', so people don't randomly download it)

So, for my project proposal, I've decided to focus on the more lenient (and hopefully more popular) message of saying that it's alright to file share and download as long as you support the artists you like. That way the file sharing is no different to hearing something on the radio and TV and the artists you want to support can keep going. This is hard to pull off in 20 seconds, so I had to simplify the message a lot.

Instead, I'm going to use the example of 'when you X, God kills a kitten' (with X being something bad/sinful/something a person wants someone else to see). However, I'm going to have a pirate squishing the kittens with a mallet with a squeaking sound from them, making it seem more comical. I've found the 'God kills a kitten' fad on the internet to have more of a sense of humour about it, so people hopefully won't think it's trying to see you as a criminal for whatever you do like most adverts.

Here are the charater designs:
Simplified to make it easier to model, texture and animate. Also simple because 20 seconds isn't long enough to justify a details character design when it will appear for such a short time.

The Storyboards:

Pretty self-explainatory, really. If you don't pay for music you like to support artists, kitten go squish, if you do, kitten gets petted, which means happy kitten ^^

Wanna get your creative brain in gear?

Then check out this new weekly challenge for game design concepts!

I found it just now and, although it's already half way through it's first week, if anyone wants to submit something before the 16th, then there's still time ^^ All the info's on the page, and there are questions being asked in the forum, too.

I'm not sure whether you can use drawings to illustrate your point, but I hope you can, 'cause that'd rock X3

So yeah, it's every week, so give it a go if you're interested in games design, or just wanna give your mind something to think about ^^

...Wow, that could NOT have sounded more like an advertisement even if I tried! ^^;
