Card Deck Proposal
Spring 2014
For my card deck I am working collaboratively with two other students to create a card game known as Ascension. Although the idea behind the game itself is not mine, I have full freedom over what I want to turn these ideas into. I have chosen eighteen card ideas to portray and will be working digitally. This is my first time working with digital but I plan on and have already watched a lot of tutorials to get very familiar with the process and catch up to my fellow students.
The card deck that I create will be full on illustrations. You will be able to use them for not only the card deck but for other things as well. I will be working 6.75x4.875inches, which will be converted to 2.25x1.625inches to fit on the card.
Apart from the eighteen illustrations, I will also be working with my group to design the 54-card box for our decks. My separate eighteen cards will be in an eighteen-card foil wrap, which will then be placed in the fifty-four-card box.
For inspiration I have looked at some of my favorite TV shows, movies, and games. I drew inspiration from the TV show, “Supernatural” and also the movies
“Harry Potter”, “Lord of the Rings”, and “ the Hobbit”. I have also looked at fantasy games like “the legend of Zelda” and card games that Matt sent me information on.
Over all I am extremely excited for this challenge, not only to make some great illustration work but to also work digitally for the first time while doing it!
