Project aim and objectives

  

Here I have outlined my project aims and objectives based on the feedback from my pitch 

presentation. I have decided to research the influence that lighting, shadows and colour have on 

the horror genre and how this is depicted via these three factors. My final piece will be a 3D  

horror environment, visualised clearly and effectively through the use of lighting, shadows and 

colour.

Project aim; Investigate what lighting and shadows, as well as colour do to influence the genre of horror in video games and film.

1.0. Research horror in films and games, highlighting the methodologies and key factors that influence and create the element of horror.

2.0. Conduct practise-based research displaying the genre of horror in a variety of 3D environments and drawings; utilising developed knowledge in colour, lighting and shadows.  

3.0. Design a 3D environment that clearly displays the genre of horror; highlighted with relevant and appropriate lighting, shadows and colour.
