This will be the first in hopefully a very long series of updates detailing my progression through a personal game design project from absolute nothing to completion. This initial update will focus on an early technical concept piece and related notes as well as outline my current process, plans for the future and observations of what I’ve learned while getting to this point.

A requirement of graduation from the Art Institute of Seattle you have to create and display a portfolio demonstrating your ability and what you’ve learned while at school along with produce a promotional package with which to display it in, i.e. letterhead, business cards, a dvd etc.  I opted to design and paint a rather high resolution DVD cover that I would later use across my business cards and other material, in this posting I’ll show you the various drafts I created so that you can see what I started with and where I ended up.
