Graphics in entertainment Digital graphics are used in the entertainment industry, they are important for bringing the media to the public in order to get it recognised. They are used in movies, computer games and even adverts for companies and are extremely useful for creating a spark of interest between the target audience and the producers of the media. And it is these same graphics which reel the public in, giving them small glimpses of the game in order to get them to buy it which in turn makes the company money. This just shows how important digital graphics are in the modern world, without them there would be no interesting way of showcasing your media, therefore the public will have no way of seeing if it is appealing for their individual tastes leading them to the conclusion of not buying it. Different graphics are used to bring media to life for example if film is set in the old days then you are not going to use futuristic graphics, you may even want to add a black and white filter to add to the vintage feel of it. Graphics are essential for manipulating and creating the perfect environment for the media to be set. Example 1 This game is aimed at people aged 16 or above, and are into action/shooter. The case has a man with a mask which is complemented by a dark Smokey background; this gives off an air of mystery about the man which is sure to draw people in. and the call of duty logo in in white and is clearly visible. Example 2 This game is aimed at age 3 and above, it draws people in by showing them an exiting scene of racing and all the things you can do, take Mario for example he is simply driving where as luigi is flying over head on a glider! The white space makes for a good way of drawing attent... ... middle of paper ... ... scanner I will begin task 3, and begin sketching my ideas for the graphic, then I will use the scanner to put it on to the computer ICT classroom Thursday Period 4 Whole lesson Computer Software Internet access Paper and crayons I will use my visualisation diagram to create the graphic.

An examination of videogames in popular culture is a complicated one. There is a large debate as to what is the very first video game. The supposed earliest known video game was created by Thomas T. Goldsmith Jr. and Estle Ray Mann on a cathode ray tube in 1947. The game was a missile simulator similar to radar displays from World War II, and overlaid sheets of paper were used for targets since graphics were unknown at this time. On May 5, 1951, the NIMROD computer was presented in Britain. It used a panel of lights for its display and was used to play a game called “NIM”. Later, in 1952, Alexander S. Douglas made the first compu...
Video games have completely changed childhoods of many children across the globe. A video game involves visual feedback from a TV or computer monitor. Ever since the 1970s, video games have continuously improved by improving the graphics and sound. During the 1970s, there were many arcade games that were not advanced compared to today’s games. By 2016, video games are produced in three-dimensional imaging and are incredibly realistic. For example, Madden 2016 is a football game based on all the athletes in the National Football League. The graphics from Madden 2000 to Madden 2016, have improved drastically due to technology. Therefore, video game creators make billons of dollars by selling them to individuals across the world. However, there
Before speaking in full detail of the personal fondness that was acquired and progressed thought the series and the graphic details of it, it is important to address the technology that has made the motion picture possible. Computer Generated Imagery is defined as the “application of computer graphics to create or contribute to images in art, printed media, video games, films, television programs, commercials, and simulators”. In simpler terms computer generated imagery is used in different works of art to create another world through the click of a mouse. Computer generated Imagery is commonly referred to as CGI when using three dimensional computer graphics to create special effects in films and television. Anyone from a professio...
While delving deeper into the seas of analysis, close attention paid to the players depicted will reveal a bit of insight into a more subtle marketing scheme: This game is fun, yes, but it is also simple. It is so simple, in fact, that even a child can attain a level of mastery sufficient to overcome a far older, more experienced player. A young man—most likely older than eight, as eight is the minimum age stated not-so-subtly to the left—sits opposite an older man. It is probably a safe assumption that the two are related, as they have similar hair and facial features. This assumption will prove to be useful later.
Presented in an actual art exhibit, video games must have some artistic place in the world if they are put into the the renowned Smithsonian Art Museum in the United States. As a public coordinator for the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Laurel Fehrenbach interviews composer Austin Wintory in the article, “The Art of Video Games: The Music.” According to Wintory, who composed the video games Journey and flOw, “Scenes can be built around it (music) and it can add subtext through means only accessible to music.” By this, Austin tells us that much of a video game can revolve around the music and how it adds to the overall mood of the person playing the game. For instance, if the game being played is a creepy or eerie type, the kind of music that should be played should be lower noted strings with a dark sound to it. Getting to how easy it is to put a sound to a game in the twenty first century, music in the gaming industry has come a long way from what it was twenty years ago. Mentioned by Wintory, instead of the chopped sound of the 80s, today’s games can include very sophisticated composed works that require a professional musician, like orchestra pieces. The art in a video game is very important, even more than the music. One gaming company tells how ideas come together as art in a video game in the article, “The People Behind the Video
Video games have been around since 1958, and ever since then video games have developed more. With video games becoming a bigger industry, there have been more people purchasing and buying more and more video games. For examples, up to 2001, “roughly 79 percent of America's youth played video games, many of them for at least eight hours a week” (Layton). Furthermore, in 2008, “97% of 12-17 year olds in the US played video games” (“Video Games”). With a growing industry, there has been more competition between video game companies. The companies that make these video games try to make a huge profit by appealing to people’s likes. In 2008, “10 of the top 20 best-selling video games in the US contained violence” (“Video Games”)
Historically video games have been considered a novelty or technical subject, but in recent year given the increase in technology video games have been able to show that they are more. While not a traditional art form, video games do have an artistic basis. Video games are increasingly becoming more story and visually based. With these increased artistic elements it is increasingly becoming harder to deny that video games are art, but maybe they are not the art defined by a traditional definition. Critics state that that video games do not have the artistic values that art has but perhaps there needs to be a new definition of what art is to include video games.
Whether you are attempting to buy a car, or be prepared for the worst events to come video games can help you in some way. Video games take you from a camera’s point of view and allow you to enter the game in which you can dance, have a workout, take a jog, or play sports with a family member or friend. One well-known game from 1998, 6Dance Dance Revolution made by Konami; a game that is very well known by many people as a sensation in which you step onto a platform with arrows on them, on screen would be arrows and as you matched the arrows to the music you would feel as if you were dancing. Video games that usually involve you to think will usually help you in some way; maybe you want to take supplies to survive the environmental disaster that just happened, or maybe decide if you want one thing or the other, you will put more thought into the outcome rather thinking of the now
Video games have quickly risen to a sprawling media since their first conception nearly fifty years ago. As they grew, video games have become an incredible new medium for art and design. However, video game developers, especially large ones, have collected several core problems that misconceive the potential of games. Further, this problem represses this potential by suffocating this potential artistry merit with meaningless traditions and poor business practices. These observations have led to the assertion that video games as a media are ineffective as an art form compared to other art mediums due to several problems stemming from the structure and values of the video game industry.
“Copyright is a fundamental right of ownership and protection common to all of the arts” (O’Hara & Beard, 2006, p. 8). “It is a form of intellectual Property (IP)” and it gives the owner exclusive rights to the copyright (O’Hara & Beard, 2006, p. 11).
A copyright prohibits the unauthorized reproduction of creative works such as books, magazines, poems, drawings, paintings, musical compositions, sound recordings, films, and DVDs (Barnes, Dworkin & Richards, 2011). Though many people do file, copyrights do not require any special filing or process other than personal creativity, copyrights take formation automatically. Any creative works created prior to 1978 exist for 75 years. Creative works created after 1978 exist for the life of the author plus an additional seventy (70) years. Copyrights are given to an author/creato...

During my whole life and experience I have been interested in the Art, Creativity, and I have been traveling around Graphics Designing. When I go out to centres, supermarkets, the high streets around Kingston anywhere in London, Germany and other parts of Europe which I have seen. I have seen lots of Graphics designs in advertising, Billboards companies for example in electronical products or any type of product the graphics advertising companies running around the world, just because of that I was inspired in the graphics designing and I was influence by the subject.
The Role of Computer Generated Imagery in the Film Industry Computer Generated Imagery is the special effects used in motion pictures to create a visual depiction of an illusion that can not be easily created in real life. Directors of major motion pictures have been using these technologies since the early days of the personal computer. Early on, when and special effects were in their beginning stages, it was difficult to make efficient and effective effects that are well accepted by the movie critics and the general public. An evolution of special effects and the introduction of computerized animation brought the standards for movie effects to a higher level. The development of new methods of Computer Generated Imagery for less money and more effective than in the past has allowed even fairly low budget movies to incorporate such technology.
Movies and video games today, play a significant role in shaping the attitudes, thoughts, and beliefs of society. In terms of being more influential on its particular audience, video games are a much more potent medium of entertainment than movies for a variety of reasons. The influence video games have on their participant are very obvious and overwhelming. Study’s concur the overall impact of video games on their audience is substantial when comparing them to movies. Video games have a substantial influence on its audience because video games are increasing violent behavior of the player, contain more violent content and a deeper complex plot, and video games require a much deeper lever of engagement of the player.
