9. Mind Map:
All ideas
The plane gets shot down, and
breaks the wing and she has to
land the plane in an irainian
milartary base
The tanks in the battle of the somme some break down
and they cant move and they get decimated by german
machine guns
Many of his platoon die in the tet
offensive and the commander
struggles to keep them postative
She was flying a USAF
aircraft that’s why she gets
shot down
The tanks breaks through the
lines but ifrantry support was
weak and they need to hold
out there advances
In the tet offensive the m16 rifle
jam and the have to fight with
knieves in some cases
11. The reason behind the mood bored
• The images in the mood boread show the violence of the war and
that battle of the hue partically. Inaddtion to this the huey helecopter
is feture regulary as it was such a big part of the war back then. The
looks on the solders faces show the lack of energy and the look of not
wanting to be there. There are also tanks in the picture and they look
very warn and old, they look like they have been through a lot of
restiance. In addtion in some of the pictures show open grass lands
where there getting dropped off. Also swanps and marsh land were
very common in vietnam and often solders had to walk through it.
12. Video game synopsis
• In 1968 in the city of hue was heled down by US and south-Vietnamese forces. Sargent Robert walace had told his platoon to settle down for the day after being on
patrol that night, they held the whole city. So far the fighting had been very harsh and some horrifying tactics had been used in the war a lot. 11.00am Roberts
platoon was fast asleep, or playing cards trying to past the time. Then a rpg round shot Stright into the wall of the mess hall. The wall rumble like is was sand,
Roberts screamed at the platoon to scramble and get the rifles and engage at will. The whole of the us force and south Vietnam forces both started hastily firing
into the woodland surrounding the city of hue. More and more Vietcong solders started firing into the city and launching mortar rounds into the city. Roberts
platoon started to push to the outskirts of the city, they thought through the streets of hue pushing the Vietcong back out the city. Building collapsing all around
them. The us forces where stretched thin across the city Roberts platoon had 20 men in it, as they reached the end of the city 6 of his platoon were shot dead and
1 was heavily injured. Brian Sullivan was second in command in the platoon decide to call in a air strike on the fials few house of the outside of the city. The
vietcong had held down that position had many machine guns stopping Roberts platoon from advancing. Roberts called for a airstrike in the tree line and his
platoon waited and the planes flew over and strike the ground witht the missles. After the attack roberts ordered his men to attack, he though the eneenmy were
retreating, his paltoon pushed up in the woods with heavy small arms fire rattling all by their heads. The sqaud has more succes than any other squad out there
and the pushed too much and the vietcomg surrounded them. Roberts platoon qucikly thought rapidly to try and ecape the loopthe enimy was trapping them in.
They called for a smoke barrage and the tanks shot smoke out. Then roberts team ran doing some hand to hand combat on the vietcong and then manage to
escape. Unfortunatly they headed in the wrong direction to where the us strong hold was and they got lost. The platoon ran in to a villge an the villages helped
disgises them and hide their refiles....

18. Research Summary
• What have you learned from your research?
• i have leared that the battle of the hue was one of the hardest battle for the
usa and south vietnamease. They had tanks and other vechals to try and
defend the city of hue.
• What aspects of the research will you include within you own work?
• Some of the aspects of the work from research I will include is other
vehicles which will be either on fire or moving, this will help bring the
video game back to life. I will also kept the colouring because I helps it
be more relatable to war. I wanna try to keep the serveity of the
battle important.

20. Product research
• Battlefield Vietnam
• The design of the game has 3d maps. It has tanks and aircraft such as
the famous black hawk helicopter. The other team have anti tank
weapons and rpgs. The game has two team the use and the north
Vietnamese. There are multiple maps in the game, however I will not
be putting multiple maps on my project as its based around one map.
22. Style Sheet
These types of colour that you see above are the type of colours I plan to use in my project. Because it based around a military
setting in the woodland these colours make it ideal and a lot of senses to go with these. In addition to this these colour are also
easily recognizable to people as being like army colours which will help if anyone is confused about what the game is. As shown
in the picture above I will use these simple pixcel art characters to be the people you play as in the game. I have chosen these
because they are simple and easyier to create than a higher resolution pixel art, yet you can still tell what they are quiet clearly.
In addition to this they also fit in with my colour schemes I am going for.
23. Magazine and advert layouts
Both have big titles
Both use attractive
bright colour to be eye-
catching
The main top story
are in big bold
writing
Theres a coemption to
help draw more reads to
them
24. My magerzine covers

25. Video Game layouts
The menu screen
have clear
direction on them
They both have
little weekly
challenges on the
side to encourage
the play to join a
match
The both have teaser back grounds of
a map in the game to make the play
think that look cool I wanna get on
that map
Most of the colour on the
back grounds are quite
dim and serius
26. Logo visual identity for the film
Where the arrow is pointed on
the colour wheel the are some
of the colour that will go with
colour I want for the video
game.
The font colour will be white as
it stands out over the green. The
black doesn’t stad out as well
because the green is dark.
the tone of the movie will
be quite sinister

31. Contingency
What can go wrong? What can you do if it does?
The pixel art animation might not look recognizable I can go back into pixel art and change them
The sounds for the explosion might not sound realistic
enough
I can listen to royalty free one and decide if they
sound good enough
The sounds might not match up with what the
characters are doing.
When I am adding the sound double check that the
characters are doing the things they should be to
match up with the sound
32. Risk Assessment
What could be a risk to you, others or the
equipment?
How can you make sure that doesn’t happen? What
will you do if it does?
Not saving the work Having 15 mintue intervals
Not having the pixcel art look what it supposed to look
like
Make sure I keep relating back to simliar pixcel art
images of what I want to create.
