Post 19 - Useful Online Research


Here are a couple of interesting on-line resources, which I neglected to post information about until now. They both featured in my task two draft and have been kept in for the task three.

First of all, Jonathan Frome wrote the paper titled : Eight Ways Video-games Generate Emotion. This is a very well written paper, which does shine some light on how video-games are able to evoke emotion. This paper also suggests reasons why this may be the case and explains them in a categorical fashion.

Another article was one titled: Pegboards vs Polygons:Animating for Video Games by Mark Garabedian. This gave me a lot of information into what is involved in creating game based animation, which are both successful and are able to a level of engagement.

The website from which this article was found has since been very useful and is similar to that of the Eleven Second Club site in that it is a central hub for animators from every level of animation.
