This proposal for a platform game named Escape was created as a group project.  My role was to create the look and feel of the game and to design the game enviroment.  A key element in the concept of the game was that the main character is exploring a post-apolcalyptic city, so details such as character of the buildings and overall mood of the environment were important.

I designed the backgrounds by digitally painting over my own photographs of buildings in Chelsea, New York City using Photoshop.  I used palette of shades of grey and brown, colours associated with ash and smoke.  The variation of heights in the buildings and mixture of architectural styles work as platforms for the character to climb over during game play.

I also designed the mood board and treatment file for the game proposal.  The mood board was created using a combination of painted backgrounds, original research photos and text to communicate the mood of the game environment.
