GET THE CAKE FINISHED

GET THE CAKE 2 by ~crow063 on deviantART

INTERACTIVE NARRATIVE

Intial Ideas
-Quiz
Steven Seagal quiz
-Maze
type game user would click which direction to go very simple try and find the centre etc
-Get the cake
fun game where the user tries to get the cake

My first orginal idea was to go with my first idea which was the Quiz, so i thought up of quite a few things of how i would like it to look and made a background. Then i found a problem with it because i wanted to be able to keep track of the score & which questions the user had got right, but being the first time i'm using flash i don't know the code so i kind of gave up on that idea.
here is one of the backgrounds i designed for the quiz.





So after rejecting my first idea i thought i would try one of my other ideas "Get the Cake" in this idea the user has to try and get the cake and every time the user does they progress to the next level. each level will have a menu of 3 options which are all different animations but only 1 will be correct and progress the user back to the next level, if the user picks the wrong one then they will go back to the level screen and be able to try again.





Here is the first level of the "Get The Cake game, it isn't finshed yet there are still a few things i would like to change minor things which will be comppleted in the final version.
Please ignore the sound as i just left it on from the action script, (it will repeat itself if you rewind it & start again, like i said one of the things i will be changing)

Here is the Narratives structure for the Get the Cake game.




Things needed
I'm planning on making 2 more levels and having 3 levels as a minimum
add a music track to the flash movie
make a new page for "try agian" so rather than try again just come up have a generic page which shows up instead and bit more of delay on the last part of the animations

One shot 1 Film production

StoryBoard

Here is the storyBoard
For the sleep walking idea, also i'm probably going to invest in a sketch book next time rather than do it on lined paper.

Location Shots
The film is planned to be set in me kitchen at the Maltings, where i'm staying :) only problem we have is that it may not look too much like night because there is a window futher on the right just out of the camera shot, however there is a big metal shutter we can close to block the light out

Day 2 Night

Well i had this idea in my head for a while, of Day changeing into Night. I set up by camera looking out my window and took a picture every 5 minutes for about an hour, 12 pictures in total and then stuck it in windows movie maker made the transitions for each picture as small as it would go. Then imported the movie into Photoshop and saved it as a .gif file. I felt it wasn't long enough to upload it on youtube and it only plays once, where as now it being a .gif file it which just play forever & repeat.

for a first attempt i think it looks good but i want to re do it again mainly because i didn't realise how short it was going to be, so next time i'm going to take more pictures and will upload a higher quality version for YouTube maybe even add some sound. And next time i will have a more stable base for the camera.

well here it is might take a while to load...
