For my Digital Platforms brief, I made an Animation based off of Video Games, aiming to show facts and give a small insight of the history of videogames.
As I am a big fan of videogames myself and I studied Games Development at A-Level, I already knew some of these facts. These were pieces of infomation I already knew of, or was interested to find out. I tried to make the facts relate to eachother and have a common theme, such as ‘Most Sold Video Game’ and ‘Most Sold Video Game Console’ as well as ‘First Video Game’ and ‘First Video Game Console’/’First Handhdld Videogame Console’.
For these I searched myself for each answer. All of which I found on Wikipedia as it was a simple bit of information, with a one word or sentence answer rather than a vast explaination, which was good because it meant I could keep the Animation simple yet still factual.
These are the following links I uses for Research:
