GAD - Trends Project

After viewing trends in gaming from 2013 and brainstorming ideas as a class you will create an updated video for this year.

Software: Your choice (Adobe Premiere / Windows Movie Maker)

Length of video: Between 5-10 minutes

Your video should include:

1. A logo for YOUR game company
2. A voice over from you listing and explaining this years top ten trends
3. Clips from games related to the current trends

This video should be something appropriate for your professional portfolio (think "would I show this to an elderly couple" or "would I show this to my future boss"). When finding clips for your video you may need to use a tool such as https://www.clipconverter.cc/
