the beginning of the project
Im going to start by designing my characters in illustrator and all their actions.
Ive decided to create characters based on the poets themselves so i have a look to work with straight away. Since Im using adrinne ich and syvia plath. These will be my two characters.

audio visual poetry in gaming
Video games are a language, a grammar or linguistics of various texts. The sounds, the movement, the graphics, the rules or lack of rules, everything about a video game is a component of language. …..
A digital poetry game must combine all these elements, strange and interactive stanzas, crossed out and obstructed lines, sounds and texts triggered and lost during the play. Indeed the game interface becomes a road to inhabiting the digital poem, to coaxing the reader/player into living and creating within the game/poetry space.
I want to continue my final year project from my 4 year degree in visual communications. I was inspired by renowned poet Robert Frost, I chose to examine how people relate to poetry today, with an aim to change the traditional perception of poetry. To capture this I have created a animation, an informing poster and a booklet which explores the relationship between poetry and people within an image primary context. These formats were created in an attempt to encourage alternative considerations and strengthen the effect images can have with words and sounds upon the individual imagination. This is an example of my final year project last year.
interactive game ideas for kids
These examples are for electronics but
could be transferable to programming
ideas to explore for final year project
- retail experiences and get people back into stores
- getting students to engage with college as they go about their daily classes through interactive posters and interactive games
- interactive story telling for night time scares
- game to teach kids how to program
