Week Four - 13/10/08

I began this week by developing the static HUD into an animation, displaying the movements of the content thoroughly.
I have developed the menu system extensively and the buttons are now represented by their gun lock-mechanisms with precise historical accuracy, which has required research and sketchbook development to plan how they would appear side-on. I have decided to endeavour to generate the entire project from scratch, to add an extra challenge. As such I will use only my own imagery: either hand-drawn and scanned in, scratch-built in Photoshop, or my own photographs that I have manipulated in Photoshop. I have also decided to try and create all of my own sounds to accompany the animation, with music created in Garageband and Foley recorded with equipment from college.
The menu now animates as a scroll; opening and closing when the content is changed. I have also began experimenting with media with my concept art, including pencil, pen and inks.
