Mind Maps and Mood Boards

Very early pre-production in the games industry involves hashing out ideas very quickly to get a sense of what the project is about.

One of these methods is to create mind maps, with the central point being the project and ideas for what might be desirable or required coming off the central point.

I have created a mind map for the cutscene project here.

Another major element of pre-production in the industry is to use mood boards.

These are selections of images which help to define the direction for the look and feel of a project.

I have used Pinterest to create some mood boards to help with defining the look and feel of the cutscene.
