GAME AESTHETIC
Identifying the aesthetic that we want to achieve is an incredibly important aspect of the video because it will influence the way that it is perceived by a viewer. For example, if we choose a more slick and modern aesthetic, it could be taken more seriously and we might have more chance of the video convincing people that Obligation is a real game. However, if we use an old game aesthetic, this also has appeal in the sense that it is a popular and admired style of design and would appeal to our target audience as it is nostalgic.
Old game aesthetic Vs New game aesthetic
Old game:
- Seen as nostalgic
- Can be used as a form of satire
- Based on pixels - with block colour and basic design
New aesthetic:
- Modern, contemporary, suggests the unknown, high tech
- Would make someone interested in 'Obligation' in a sense of unknown
