OK midway through and here is some of my progress I have had to get some help by using some great
models from
Turbosquid. in the writing side I have found for some reason the soundtrack to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky to be a great Muse. the biggest problem is keeping to a
theme. The main books I'm using to help our are Sara Kane's play "4:48 Psychosis" and (
Strangely) Max Brooks "World War Z". "4:48 Psychosis" is a strange play not only for the content but also in the way it is written no
definitive characters although there seems to be three. the writing has been
refereed by many as Sara
Kane's Suicide note, very dark and
misleading. My former tutor
David Surman had pointed me to this play so kudos to him.
"World War Z" is a Zombie Horror written after the events of a global outbreak of Zombies. So why has this influenced me? The way it is written is just like an after action report to any war and in doing that gives the impression that you have been locked in a bunker all this time and have been given this to know what has been going on in your absence. one very importance scene I have taken influence from is where the author is visiting a young woman in a mental institute who has regressed into a child way of thinking. a very strong scene and shows how mentally destroying a situation like that can be. I hope to recreate the same atmosphere in this game as well with the writing especially in the later parts.
