Brief 6 – Concept By Hassan Ishfaq

The book environment

The chapter what we will be doing is chapter 2. it’s a murder scene and fro a trailer we will just have sill concepts of that chapter as platform for us to then expand on and hopefully make a game.

This location will be in a city called Cannes. Its in France. So I will just look at the buildings and try to draw some concepts of how would want the area to look like.

Cannes – France

Cannes – France

This is the overview of the city. Everything that’s in the yellow circle is the area that we will be focusing on. It’s a posh area and the pictures in the previous are the examples.

what I have realised from scouting the area is that the one colour that most buildings have are a creamy type of colour. Its all bright. Its new but the type of style is old which what I love about this place.

My pictures

I went out today and just took some pictures of buildings, the inside part and got some textures.

Most of these images I gave to Thomas so it can help him for when he is applying the textures. I wanted some of the texture to be from actually going out rather than just going around the internet and getting it. Same with the ideas. Even though the city we are doing is in France that doesn’t mean I can’t go out and get some ideas because at the end of the day we are supposed to make our own version of it so I had to go out and see for myself.

Concept style – isometric

When I thought about doing concept, I didn’t want to the sketches and then put that into illustrator. Even thought its vital to sketch which I have been doing, I just don’t want to make things complicating by using Photoshop or illustrator because I can only go so far with the traditional style when using those software, so I thought of trying a new style of art which is called isometric. It means where the lines of the drawing are at a 30 degrees angle.

Concept style – isometric-perspective

To fully understand isometric, I went back to the basics and just starting to do stuff about perspective drawing. Its about perspective. To the right are just images of my thought process and getting hang of the drawing. I did most if these in Herbert's lesson as he was going through perspective drawing which really helped me for this project.

Concept style – isometric- My attempt

I knew that one of our concepts for the group was a hotel so l looked around the city of Cannes and I picked this hotel called ‘InterContinental Carlton Cannes’.

I didn’t want go in to detail with the isometric drawing as it was my first actual attempt at doing it. But it came to a point where I started to think about doing it in detail and I was doing it which took a lot of time. The bottom picture was my first attempt

Concept style – isometric After showing it to Chris, he recommended

to use a software called Google Sketch up. You can create buildings in perspective and its very easy to understand. I did a bit of it in detail to show off what it would look like even when its finished without texturing. I kept the isometric style because I like the way things look in overview. The picture on the right is my example. I didn’t fully copy the hotel. I changed it a bit to make it look unique. I had to do a quick sketch to have a base to start from. I had obviously change some stuff as I was building it in the software but that’s development is about.
