Atom Hawk Concept Brief
- Environment Exploration

This is one of Atom Hawks artist test briefs that is designed to see how potential job applicants you would work on one of there professional project. The brief is based on a professional time period with you been expected to see what you can create in 15hours of design time.

The Story:

The town of Hopewithstanding, Massachusetts had fallen into disarray since the Tinfoil uprising. The buildings were still standing but the government had evacuated, leaving the various gangs to run riot in their new playground. One gang, the Ferocious Fourteen had set up their headquarters in the popular fast food joint, ‘Would I fry to you?’ turning into it into a defensible position where they can share loot, argue over their next move and hold-off against rival gangs.

Style:

Realistic

Mood:

We’d like to see a very personality-driven environment with story-details and visual easter eggs

Minimum delivery:

Stage 1: 2-3 x Black & White thumbnails showing design variation for the fast food base

In a real scenario Atomhawk would usually then choose which one to move onto Stage 2, ask tutors for advice on which to progress.

Stage 2: 1 Rough colour version of chosen thumbnail

Images should be 2000px on its longest side.

Stretch goal 1:

Minimum delivery + design notes

Stretch goal 2:

Minimum delivery + stretch goal 1 + break outs of any interesting objects / details from the Area

Timings:

In a real test scenario – you’d have 15 hours for the test. This translates as two 7.5 hour working days, the same hours we work at Atomhawk. Clock your hours and keep a record of what has been achieved within the timing plan, as the ability to work quickly and within a timescale is an important part of the test.

Note:

Gauge your time carefully. In a real situation if you had a choice between submitting a half-done stretch goal, or a good looking image without it, you should submit your best looking asset with no WIP elements.

Submission portal for final work will be set up in Canvas assignments later in the module
