PROJECT #2 Video Game Fable

(DUE week 3)

Why do you think fables, myths, and legends have had so much impact on storytelling? Create an idea for a video game that's based on a fable. Research a fable: (popular or obscure, traditional or urban) Make a 5-8 minute presentation (power point is preferred) on your idea. Show images and talk about these points:

What is the universal theme being conveyed by the story you created?

Why would your idea make a compelling video game?

Presentations will begin at the beginning of the next class. You should should show at least 15 photos and at least 4 drawings on 14"x17" sketch paper(color is encouraged).* You will use PHOTOS that you find on the Internet and drawings that you make yourself. YOU MUST USE AT LEAST 4 DRAWING OF YOUR OWN WORK, ANY ADDITIONAL IMAGERY ONLNE MUST BE CITED! You can choose to draw whatever you want, the character, the environment, special props, whatever. You must talk for 5-8 minutes and answer the above questions and be prepared to take live questions.

*I will only grade you based on effective communication of ideas, and imagination, not on technical accomplishment of the drawing.
