APD_Week10 Play and stillness

Theme：

Play and stillness

Context:

The Mist: This movie talks about a freak storm unleashes a species of bloodthirsty creatures on a small town, where a small band of citizens hole up in a supermarket and fight for their lives. The mist is a still element in the movie, it offers the sense of fear to characters and audiences.

Silent Hill: It is a famous horror game, the ghosts and creatures come from the mist. I still remember that the feeling of unpredictable of what will happen in the mist, and player have overcome the fear to figure out what going on in the town.

Method:

I use the Unity3D and the Unity AS to download the lowpoly models witch character. I make the environment of the game, and using functions (lighting effect, fog effect, camera movement of character and so on)in Unity3D to build up the atmosphere .

Response :

I uploaded a video to MAGI website. Through this video I want to express my feeling when I lost in the mist, I only have that experience once in my childhood, I feel fear and helpless, eveything in the mist will be stillness and you will lose your sense of direction like the character in this game he is always walking back and forth in the same place.

Reflection:

Using game to visualize your feeling of your experience is a good experiment. Use the characters in the game to play the past you. Let the people return to the world of memory and play with it.
