Research
I decided to make my research mostly visual since this project is based on already existing media. For that reason I used Powerpoint as I enjoy working with it and it's quite simple to use. The first order of things was to decide on what movie I wanted to use as my base.
I limited the choice to 6 movies that came to my mind first.
When I decided on the six movies I listed the prose and cones that came with each one of them on different slides.
Then finally I decided on the movie I was going to use by putting the different movies against each other in sort of a movie tournament that would decide my final choice for the movie.
I finally landed on Avatar (2009).
I needed some more detailed references so I used the game models as references as well as some things from the art book and the avatar official twitter. I didn't end up using most of them since I didn't want the link stations to be open, also some of the things didn't match with the screenshots so I didn't use that.
If you want to see more of my research the button will open the PowerPoint to anyone who has a school account.
