@art-houseplant
Well to say that this year has been hectic would be an understatement. I don’t think my art style changed much, but i have gained new skills to help further my art. There’s still a lot I need to learn and I look forward to it, I think I am going to enjoy this.
Thank you to all of my professors this semester that made my transition to college easier, this is gong to be very cool. yeet dab lit fam
Marketing in Gaming and Animation
A lot of games market their games through ads and trailers, other games market through sponsoring youtube channels and streamers. One of the most notable games that keeps popping up is Raid Shadow legends. It pops up in youtube ads and sponsorships. It honestly gets pretty annoying, seeing it all of the time, because all of the sponsors seem scripted and I tried it once, and it wasnt even that entertaining. I mean there might have a lot of hype around it in the beginning of the game
I fuckj g hat this game AAAAAAAAAAA
The lighting is shadow of the colossus is really cool where you really get the sense of the atmosphere, and the scale of the colossus because of how they are lighted. The colossus are really desaturated which gives you the sense of it being the large monsters that it is. They are dark enough to where you canr see much detail but lot ul enaought to where the details are still there, which I think is great in conveying they're grand size.
Rework Concepts
The riot team has released concept arts of a champion that they are reworking, in this they can show the process of how they create characters. something different this time is that they asked the community of their opinions of the different designs, and I think that, that was a cool idea especially to get a feel of what the community likes more.
this character is a scarecrow themed character, and they wanted to focus on fear for this character. I think at this point in time, they have figured what design they are going for, and have consolidated the design, and I think that they have really encapsulated the theme that they are going for in the design.
Animation in Gaming
The animation and art in League of Legends is always phenomenal, but sometimes they have to pull of some funny things on the model to achieve the right feel for what they’re doing. so this is an example of how they changed the proportions to make it look better in game. I think this would be an animation smear. Because of the top-down view of the game they've done this to make his arms look a bit better and give his body more energy when he performs this ability. The game is still great, but I just find it entertaining whenever I see any kind of smear or compression in animation
So these are some concepts of a character in creating, and so far I dont have a name but I do have the general idea of the world that they exist in. I'm hoping that I'll also be able to flush out his design so that I can present him at our exhibit on November 8th. I feel a lot of enjoyment in creating and designing characters. As far as world building goes so far, hes a character that lives in a world where it's a giant continent like pangaea. The rich live closer to the coast where it's nice and the poorer people live towards the center which is more desert, except for a few oasis and as few rivers. This character lives closer to the center, but more of the lower middle class. So the character I'm designing is like a rogue, where he raids caravans that may be traversing into the desert area, I'm not sure if he's going to be raiding the caravans solo or with a gang, logically he would do it with a gang though. So that's all I have so far for him, I'll take some constructive criticisms as well!
Pantheon, the Unbreakable Spear
League of legends team never ceases to amaze me with their character login screens on their main client and their in game animation. You can really see he progression of their animation capabilities as the champions get newer and the technology to render them also advances. Pantheon being their newest rework really shows the time that they put into animation these to look like real human movements. you can really see that change in the helmet, where the fire looks wispy and isn’t hard geometry like it would have been if it was made like 5 years ago. Years ago most of it would have been pretty static with only some movement so that it wouldn’t be super blocky. Like if you compare the champion Mundo to the reworked Pantheon, you can see the more fluidity of the animation and the less blocky models. Overall I think that animation is a skill that you have to be really dedicated to learn because it just seems so time consuming if you want it to look right.
Game Exhibition
I don’t think major game expos are really needed, because people are going to get hyped about certain games anyways if you have the right audience. Though it may generate more excitement for it if you have something grand like that, but I feel like things similar to E3 and others can be achieved in the same way like Nintendo Direct and just release a small trailer for the game, and when people hear about it then more people will slowly catch onto it. So I don’t think that the game exhibitions are really necessary unless its just to generate money, because that something they do well also.

Introduction
Hi! I'm Gianghiem, as an artist I've been drawing for quite some time, though I started getting more serious about it around 5th grade. I enjoy the freedom I have as an artist, and prefer to draw people as that's what I have practiced the most. I hope to eventually become a concept artist for a major game company or be part of a project in developing a game. Though I mostly do just drawings, I have been trying out sculpting clay.
I definately still have a long way to go as an artist, but I hope that I can eventually have some sort of impact on this world. I started to post art about a year ago on instagram, where my handle is a.house.plant, my audience has certainly grown, but I hope that I can grow a lot more over the next few years of my academic career.
