Airship research - Environment Styles


At this point in my project, I have been looking at the different styles of modeling. I have been looking at games that have a similar or the same theme as what I wish to create. Games such as 'BioShock Infinite'.  This game displays the style of airship and environment I want to achieve within my project. In addition to this, I also have been looking at this game for its use of exterior movements, such as the engines and other mechanical pieces. I want to aim to create this idea because of its ability to create a fully immersive and realistic experience for the player. 

 The screenshots below are from the 'BioShock Infinite' trailer. The link is as follows: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQZd5jGWUOo
This is a screenshot from the 'Bioshock Infinite'  trailer. This will allow me to take ideas of the exterior views, the scenery, and landscape which can be viewed. In addition, the moving parts of the city are visible.

Another game that I have been looking at is 'Guns of Icarus Alliance'. I have been looking at this game because of its themes and styling I want to take notes of its environment scene and more importantly the use of texturing. This will be very useful for my own modeling ideas. 

  I have taken screenshots from the trailer for this game, the link for it is as follows: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOFImC_5-Mw
This is an image used by Playststaion to advertise the games. This is useful for me to gain an insight into the exterior texturing.

The third game which I have been looking at is 'The Order:1886'. This game, different from the others, will allow me to gain a good idea of the interior design and texture. The images below are taken from the environment artist's website.

This is one of the images displaying the interior modeling in the game 'The order:1886'. This is useful for me so I can gain ideas of interior lighting and texture of the control deck.

These games will be valuable in my research as well as allowing me to gain a clear insight into the use of texture, movement, and lighting which I can utilise in my modeling.

Brain Storming   Using the mind map and drawings below, I will be able to gain a clear understanding and idea of what I want to be able to accomplish with my project. I hope to create an eye-catching and intriguing scene later on in the process.

The road

The road For the road I researched as I wanted to keep it all in theme, this led me to choose between a busy highway or side county road. As the project was set in outside of the town, I chose to have a county road as there is a lot of carter within them and I will be able to factor that into the end video. Below is the picture that I took inspiration from. From this, I could use for a reference point and be able to mould the road for the environment The telephone lines As the first part was set on the road, I wanted the have more realism in the environment. I started to research what other models I could use as a backdrop and content which I could use for the video     The car and why I chose it.   For the sense and the environment, I decided to have the car as 1974 Dodge Monaco front, this is because it fits the time frame and the location of the environment which is America. Another reason why I picked it was that it’s an ironic car from the film Blue...

Movement Within Film

Within my work, I want to incorporate moving parts. Such as cogs, large wheels, pipes, etc. Industrial mechanical environment features. I want to achieve this so I can create a fully immersive and exciting environment for the player to explore and work within.  I have been looking at films and how the CGI effects can be transferred into movement within a game. 'Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones' involves a scene that depicts a moving conveyor belt with many moving parts of machinery. I want to use these as inspirations because of the repetitive nature, not unlike an n airship the parts move to complete a sequence. This is something that I can utilise in my work.  The scene link is as follows :  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzWyLDQvKng&t=1s A screenshot  Add caption
