Final Project

Nov 24 2009

For the final project, I immediately felt as though I would go the creative route, as opposed to the analytical road. So! For the project, I've decided to create a short, interactive piece of fiction using the computer program RPG Maker. This program allows the user to develop interactive games similar to the 8 - bit and 16 - bit role-playing games that existed on such systems as the Nintendo and Super Nintendo. Using custom resources, the user can create their own environments, characters, and storylines to share with those who play it. In this manner, I will create my own unique short story for members of the class who critique it to play and evaluate. I will also submit a 2 page paper in order to evaluate it in my own mind, as well as possibly explain story points for a more complete explanation of the tale.

Final Project

Nov 24 2009

For my final project, I decided to create and analyze my own creation. I've decided to make a painting and (in my opinion) interepret how effective the story-telling is presented. In order to make a more thorough analysis, I will present the painting to two friends and analyze what they think my painting is depicting. After my two friends give me their initial analysis, I am considering providing clue words to indicate any characters that the painting in presenting. (This is similar to what we did in class watching the Circle and Line Love Story)
I would then judge and analyze the effectiveness of my painting taking into consideration what my friends have taken from the piece.
