Research - Ingame Advertisement
My research assignment was about Ingame Advertisement. Together with my classmate Hugo, we investigated what gamers thing about the visual appearance of ingame advertisement.
It was a big project and it mostly consisted of gathering information. We made an online survey in which we got more than 250 responses. We gathered a lot of information for our report, but for our final presentation we decided to do something else.
Instead of listing a lot of boring facts and numbers, we spiced up our presentation by using visual help to give the audience a better view of what we discovered. By using the results from the survey we made some profiles about the different type of games. We combined the profiles with character art which shows the stereotypes of the gamer which fits the profile.
For example:
The mainstream gamer doesn't take gaming that seriously. to them it's just a hobby and they aren't that big of fanatics while gaming. Our research also showed that mainstream gamers have more problems with anti smoking advertisements.
Can you guess who Mainstream Mike is?

TRASH
This was probably the project which was most fun to work on. For this project we had to build a JAVA game for a mobile phone.
TRASH is an adventure comparable to the older Zelda games. Pick your favorite player to investigate some serious stuff that's happening outside. People are littering all around your house. As the player you are the one to stop the littering. You can attack the people who throw their trash on the ground by hitting the action button. It's pretty basic, you walk up to the enemy and hit him before it hits you. If you lose your hearts, then it's game over. Defeat the enemies, pick up the trash and return home. It's a simple game but with a lot of love put into it.
I did this project together with my classmate Sammy (sexysammy.nl). Sammy did all the (marvelous) programming while I did all things visual like the ingame graphics, cut scenes and level design.
There is actually a lot more to show about this game than the screenshots below. When I find the rest, I will post the whole game and more screenshots and graphics.

ROAST!!
Roast was a project in which we build a website where people could upload photos, create their own profile and give each other rankings.
This project was done by my classmate Sammy ( sexysammy.nl ) and me. Sammy was the technical half, he did the PHP/MYSQL part where I did the graphics and CSS design.

Avatar Audience
Avatar Audience was the result of one of our school projects. We had to come up with the idea for an interactive media device which could be featured at a local music festival called Geuzepop. The assignment was to turn this idea and make it into a convincing concept.
Our idea was to add a virtual audience to one of the stages. Visitors of the festival could create their own virtual characters which would appear into the virtual audience. By customizing, the character would have their own identical look and screen behavior. This could be combined with a text message function, so that messages people send out by phone would appear on the screen.
This project was done in a group of 4 people. My tasks included to design and create all graphical stuff of the project.

mosrednA.com logo's
When making this website I tried a couple of logo's. You can view my current logo in the flash animation above the page, but for the fun of it, I've posted some tryouts I actually vectorized.
