This is the start of my FMP, Proposal and plan.


SECTION ONE – The Final Major Project (guide 100 words)
I am doing a fantasy underwater landscape concept drawing, this can be used to show a mood and style of an underwater adventure game, I have been doing mind maps of underwater aspects like what sort of creatures will be inhabiting the surface of the ocean, I am using Photoshop for my landscape the previous projects I used Photoshop for were my Spinosaurus and my twisted tales final piece by doing these things I understand how to use the software and all of its tools and aspects at an intermediate level, I can use Photoshop to tap into my inner creativity, I feel I have more control and can achieve my ideas much more efficiently using Photoshop then traditional drawing methods.   

SECTION TWO – Influences, Research, Sources and Ideas (guide 100 words)
I will do research on fantasy art and how it can be included in an underwater environment and I will look at artists that draw aquascapes, I will look at different styles because If I look at just one, that one artists has the same “personality” however by looking at a variety of artists I can see a lot more techniques.  
The Idea I have in mind is that the camera will be looking at a diagonal angle from the sea bed to the surface, the research I will do in the future will be about fantasy plants in the water some of the research came from the wiki but most of it came from my own knowledge.
My influences are that I love the sea and fantasy art so I thought to myself I’ll put them together, I had a look at some pictures and gained an idea of the sort of thing to try and strive for.
I will have a demon character, so I will research different demons from different game like devil may cry also I will look at traditional demons and traditional art forms.

SECTION THREE – Techniques, Processes and Timetables (guide 150 words)
I will be using Photoshop to create my work using various tools from the interface primarily I will be using the gradient tool to slide colour along a set path also I will be using the pen tool, the pen tool is very important because it can curve the colour and curve the plants in the water which gives it that underwater feel also I use the paint brush tool, I will use the soft brush to give it that underwater blur and blend the colours together. I will use my knowledge of composition and perspective to plan out my work. Ill is using sketching to do observational drawings and to sketch out my ideas. I will be using the drawings for reference for my Photoshop drawings. See separate plan for timetable.


SECTION FOUR – Method of Evaluation (guide 150 words)
I will use my blog as a diary and a sketchbook where I will annotate my work and my development throughout the project, I will also take part in group critiques where we tell each other how we all can do better, writing the evaluations shows what I’ve done so far and uploading my work to the blog so my lecturers can mark my work also asking my tutors to come over and evaluate my work to see what I’ve done right and what I need to work on.
