Research into possible A2 practical.

" A promotion package for a new computer/video game, to include two TV advertisements, together with two of the three options: The cover of the games package, Two hyperlinked pages from the games website, a magazine advertisement for the game."


My idea for this brief is to have a on road/off road driving game, as this is my favourite type of game to play.
As there are loads of games in this type of field it will need to be unique.


Off road games:
Motorstorm , Motorstorm Pacific Rift, Motorstorm Arctic Edge, Motorstorm Apocalypse, Mx Vs Atv, Dirt, Pure
These games all offer something unique, be it different locations that the gamer could never experience in real life or curtain types of off road vehicles.


On road games:
Burnout, featuring the seven games, Need For Speed, Grand Turismo 1,2,3,4,5, Split Second


These games are all featured on the road, they again other something different, Like a vast range of cars, speed, crashes, modifications or realism.


I thinking of possibly linking the two types or going down a different route.


An idea for the advert is to use my dads off road remote car and film in the woods with it jumping with some weird angles. then using stop motion to have the driver (little action man figure) to stand  by. I also want to include the style of which the current death race was filmed in, using the style of the cars and the type of action but without the killing.
After having a problem with the car it will hopefully be fixed and will be ready to have a run around with the camera.


Games package examples.

The covers are the main selling point when you are in the shop or purchasing on the Internet, as this is the first thing you will see. This means that the cover will have to be the best that I can producea nd will have to improve my Photoshop skills using tutorials.
I really like the covers from Motorstorm and Burnout, So I will be aiming for something like this. The Playstation 3 logo will be included along with the ratings.
