"Urban Legend" is a video game I have created to illustrate the importance of tradition craft and providing a niche for its place in the world of new media. My project pulls inspiration from the issue that the arts, traditional craft and music have too often been the first departments to take cuts in funding for schools to save on their spending budget. I believe that it’s important to demonstrate that by teaching kid to use traditional craft to make new and interesting things will both allow them to express themselves while presenting them with lucrative career path options.
Much of the project was created with Playdoh and then animated with stop motion techniques. However, I also created assets using adobe illustrator and photoshop. I some instances I had walked around the city and took photos and incorporated them into the game as well.
