Week 10
Data collection

Week 11
Data collection/ Creating Questionnaire


Popularity survey for game characters in the League of Legends

Data for the survey

Reflection:

Week 8- During independent study week, I started deciding on my data collection method. It was a little difficult to go through all the materials provided alone without guidance from the lecturer, so I took some time to learn how to decide on a data collection method.

Week9-When thinking about data collection methods, I found that a research proposal is really important for further research work. Also, the main factor to consider when thinking about data collection methods is to answer our research questions, so sometimes questionnaires are not the best way to obtain data.

Week10-Finished the first draft of the data collection method and also the questions for questionnaires, but haven't put it in Google form yet. Searching for some game character designers' Instagram or Twitter accounts in order to do email interviews later.

Week11-I did a lot of research on this game and I asked a lot of questions to people who play League of Legends. I also found out that I was very unfamiliar with this game before because I hadn't even tried to play it. Completed the Google form (questionnaire), but there were still a few details that needed improvement. Sent email interviews to seven game character design studios, but haven't gotten any responses yet.

The project includes the development of character designs, creature concepts, and environment visuals, blending ancient mythology and cultural heritage with a focus on storytelling that resonates with young audiences.

31/8/2023-7/12/2023 (week1-week15) Ng Jia Xien (0355062) Vehicle and Props Design Instruction  Week2(Public Holiday) Week 3 Deconstruction exercise  During week 1, we were supposed to complete the deconstruction exercise, which is using shape to block out the vehicles and try to understand the mechanism and structure. I did start that exercise but still couldn't complete it before the week 3 submission, so Mr. Kannan allowed me to extend the submission deadline to week 4, and I did finish on time. We were also asked to do research on different terrain vehicles (sea, land, air), we could come out with the idea of vehicles based on movies/games/ animation and others. So I decided to use the same IP with my environment art, which is the animation "Spirited Away". After creating my mood board, I started to do my sketch. I try to do it quickly as Mr. Kannan said we shouldn't waste t...
