Lucas -- great improvement! Really glad you took out the 'solutions' -- it's become such a cliché (Private Eye runs a weekly column of the use of 'solutions' in company taglines/pitches/mission statements...).

Obstacles btw!

I've made a couple of little changes.... just to make it a bit punchier./...

Mad Cow - Harry Cho , Hendra Kesuma and Carmen Mok

‘Mad Cow’ is a short 3D animation about the very serious effects of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy. Based on a true event, it aims to make people aware of this deadly problem. Using a cartoon style, ‘Mad Cow’ interviews a sufferer of the disease. He tells a thrilling tale of escape, but his future looks bleak.

That looks great -- and if you're happy that it communicates all that you want it to, it will be fine for both pitchline and synopsis.

That's a great pitchline Ben -- you just need to take out that unnecessary comma. Actually you have a couple of them in the synopsis as well.... my only strong suggestion is to take it from the future tense 'players will' and put it in the present tense -- remember this is a marketing tool to use when it's finished....

BTW who else is in your group so I can give them their mark as well?

Pitch line:

Computer World is a short state of the art 3d animation with an engaging story about a boy who is literally sucked into his PC to save its robot-workers from a virus.


Synopsis:


Computer World is a short state of the art 3D animation with explicit visual style and soundtracks that metaphorically explores our everyday engagement with computers. The hero literally enters his PC where he encounters villain Bob Gates, the source of a deadly virus infecting his computer. Is he the chosen one to save all robot-kind…


By Sophia Siu & Oscar Liu

[shiralee saul]

They are both great! My only suggestion would be to capitalize 'Chosen One'.

-Frost-

Synopsis

Frost will be a flash based game for my final project presentation for the Game Graphic Design Course. The game will be that of a mystery and crime genre, with clues and evidence that will be evident throughout the game to emphasise the genre and feel of the game. The game will be rated M15+ to further emphasise the realism of the crime reality. With this rating the game will be designed and targeted to 15 year olds and above. Both genders will be targeted, as it will appeal to both genders with the extensive storyline and mystery sense of story.
In designing the game, the storyline will be written first with so-existing scenes and dialogue to go with it, which will include cinematic animation to add to the storyline. The main characters will be drawn and brainstormed to get the desired look for the feel of the game.

Are You Ready for Frost?

Frost Off!

[shiralee saul]

Ben this is a great start, but it feels very much as though it's an explanation written for us (teachers/project supervisors) rather than for the rest of the world. Your pitchline (which I'm assuming you're still working on and will post soon) and synopsis are marketing tools -- they are there to inform and, more importantly, tempt the audience to want to know more....

Punchline

Corruptionis a total conversion of RPG Neverwinter Nights 2, with a story dealing with the conflicts between science, nature and religion

Synopsis

Corruption is a total conversion of RPG Neverwinter Nights 2. Set in modern times, Corruption is a complete visual reworking featuring custom models, textures and an original narrative. Situated in the grim, cold industrial dystopia of Angulas, Corruption is a game of power, hatred and greed. Science is the new religion and magic has been outlawed. Technology has been embraced and there is barely an inch of green to be found. The player’s character, investigating the death of their uncle, begins to uncover a much more sinister plot.
