Week of September 30 - October 3

This week was huge for me in terms of self growth. I worked on my design and art skills by adding onto my Game Design Wiki and starting the Spooktober drawing challenge.

Game design Wiki:

I am working on a wiki for a game outside of my main project to improve my communication skills. In our design meetings we talked about catering to the audience of our documentation y adding context and being ware of what we are assuming when we try to convey an idea.

Spooktober:

Luxurious Ghost 1

Stylish Cat 2

Sleepy Vampire Hunter 3

Mathematics:

Number and Quantity (Vectors)-

I utilized vectors as I dertmined where the light and shadows would be in my ghost drawing. The light source is the chandilier and I needed to detirmine how much light there would be on which object and how vbrant that light would be. Because the light is located behind the ghost in the point of iew, ost of the ghost that we can see would be in shadow. In addition, the shadow of the parasol is closer to the bottom left of the canvas than the ghosts shadow because the parasol is higher in the air.

Geometry (2D and 3D geometrical relationships)-

To convey distance between the tree and the clouds in my Spooktober 3rd drawing, I put a gaussian blur on the clouds to make them seem further away. I also illustrated the right foot of the character as closer to the camera than the other by foreshotening it less than the other you can see the shoe is longer and you can see her leg under the cuff of her overalls.
