Technology: Tools

My first impressions are that I'm intrigued and some seem to definitely be more reliant on the Internet, I am familiar with some of the tools like blogging as it helps record thoughts and ideas and shares them with others. Bookmarking is another one I'm familiar with and uses the Internet as well and saves sites with relevant info. Images editing is also something I'm familiar too, while I use photoshop which is more complex, basic image editing is rather common, especially one phones as well. Graphics creation is another that's reliant on the Internet and seems to be common to create text on an image. While I have heard of Unity 3D, I am not exactly 100% familiar with the what goes into it.

When looking at all this, it seems like a somewhat familiar environment, especially sharing online work, image editing but more complex, like photoshop and graphics creation, Though things like Unity 3D, is something I am not exactly versed with really.

There are some technical skills I would like to work on and that is getting more familiar with Unity 3D

When thinking about "Class Tools", I think about DSLR cameras, Mac labs, programs like photoshop, illustrator, premiere pro, to name a few.

Game Design Document

I am part of the Chris Carneys and James Reynolds team for the game, the game is a 3D experience of 1916 Rising. We are going to recreate Dublin from references. Description of the Game: "You play as Micahel “Foggy” Fogarty, a 16-year-old boy who after witnessing the murder of his father joins the Irish Republican Brotherhood. Foggy travels with his division to Dublin, Easter weekend in 1916 to take part in the Rising and is tasked with passing messages from the GPO to other key locations the IRB and Civilian Army holds." My role in the production of this game is GDA Creator, I work with the writer and team leader to create a GDA to help out other teams and to help the writer sort out the story, names and characters. Here is a video of the GDD: (NOTE: The GDD in the video was created and provided by Chris Carney and James Reynolds to the group, I did not create it nor do I take credit for its creation or the ideas in it)

Introduction by Nate

Hello, I'm Nathan, a second-year student at ITB. I'm 20 years old and from Cavan. This blog post is about me and hobbies, aspirations etc. If you're reading this, then I'm surprised you want to go through such torture. First of all, I really enjoyed CDM year 1. It was a great experience and felt it was fun and got to meet great people and do interesting things. I still can't get over the fact I'm in college or I even made it to the second year. Thought I would've had a mental breakdown at this point When doing the semester last year, I really enjoyed Storytelling and narrative. I find it fascinating to sit down and talk about films, I'm a bit of a movie buff so I did enjoy breaking them down and even tell a story or two. Honestly my biggest accomplishment last semester was actually getting through to second year and hell, even surviving it knowing me. My goals for this module is to plan out and hopefully make a small film for our group project as its...

Alpha build of game

For this week, I had to continue doing work on my alpha build of the game. Work is going along well, the character is moving and the controls are working well and the levels final design is complete, all that needs to be done is to add a 3rd person camera, skybox, textures and some gems to collect. Here is a screenshot of the game so far and the character model all the textures need to be added to add more life but other than that, Im happy with it so far.
