Art Styles assignment template

This is a template that I have used to create the art styles blog pages, this shows that I have put a lot of work into how I want my blog page to look. The reason I created a template like this was to make the blog page stand out, and not  just continuous text. I included different images because I wanted to show the readers what the different art styles looked like and it helped separate the text, so it was all clumped together.

The brief that we were given was to create our own personalised webpage about the different topics that we cover in our lessons. The difference between a webpage and an academic essay is that with the webpage you can be informal to a certain extent whereas on an academic essay you need to be as formal as possible. My webpage is slightly informal but is very informative.

This images shows that I have spell checked  my Game Engines theory work. The reason behind this is to ensure that there are no spelling errors in my work.

This is some of the feedback I received about my art work for my game, it told me I need to include information about how I optimised the images and the different jobs and their deadlines I had to do. This is the before and after version of my work, in the before image I do not have any information about the different jobs and their deadlines or about optimising. The after image includes everything that I was told to include in my feedback.

I have done a critical reflection page about the art, engine/logic and sound. This is a link to my critical reflection page for the art within my game.
