Indesign Work (22nd January 2020)
Our work today mainly focused on working with text formats in Adobe Indesign, we learnt about text formats and making our own character styles, we then used this knowledge and applied it to our Advertorial campaign, the fonts we used were applied to the text in our advertorial. We focused on making new text character styles we could apply to the text without changing the font.
This is the Text from my Advertorial
In 2016, Telltale games announced their next project, Telltale at the time was known for reimagining franchises like The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones, but their next project was exciting for comic book fans, on 19th July of that year, Telltale released a world premiere trailer for their next franchise re imagining, Batman: A Telltale Games Series.
Telltale Games is known for their unique style when it comes to video games, the big part of Telltale’s style is the ability for the player to influence the game through in-game choices that can change the story and affect the episodes that come after it. Telltale releases their games in an episodic structure, like a television drama or show in general (maybe not a Documentary) the episode ends on a cliff-hanger that ties into the next episode of the show, Doctor who for example uses this with their two-parter episodes, it takes two episodes to resolve the problem, with the Telltale Games however the story carries through 5 episodes.
Batman: The Telltale series comes with many consequential in-game choices that affect the rest of the game, at the beginning of each episode, a message pops up saying “the story adapts to the choices you make, the story is tailored by how you play,” this implies to the player that they are in control of how the story goes, Telltale’s games are like choose your own adventure books, similar to the game, you are in control of the story.
At the end of each episode, there will be a big choice that affects the rest of the series and episodes that come after, for example one of the biggest choices comes in episode 2 of the game’s first season, you have the option to either save Harvey Dent or save Catwoman, if you save Harvey Dent Selina will get injured And will escape, if you save Catwoman however, Harvey Dent will become his Comic Book alter ego, in the batman comics and tv shows, Harvey dent is the Batman villain Two-Face and he flips a coin to make literally all his choices, in the Batman comics Harvey Dent was scarred by acid when it was thrown at him in court by Sal Maroni, one of Gotham’s crime Bosses, but in the game, it’s actually Penguin who changes Harvey into Two-Face after maiming him with a stage light.
A feature exclusive to this game is the Codex, this details the information of all the characters in your story, it also details some of the locations that play a part in the game like Wayne Enterprises, Arkham Asylum and Crime Alley where Batman’s Parents were killed.
The interesting part about the codex is the fact that it updates whenever the story progresses, for example if a character gets killed off their codex file will update with Deceased in brackets added to the file, their codex will remain unchanged after their in-game death.
Also, the in-game choices affect the codex as well, if you choose to save Selina in Episode 2, Harvey’s Codex will change as well, this is what Harvey’s codex looks like in episode 3.
“I wonder how Harvey would react if he knew it wasn’t just Catwoman I saved at the debate, but Selina. He was itching to get out of that Hospital, regardless of how much pain he’s in. Typical Harvey, showing off his smile to ease everyone’s minds. I worry what will happen if he keeps pushing his own problems deeper and deeper”
This was an entry taken from Harvey’s codex file on the Batcomputer from Episode 3, because this is the entry in the codex if you chose to save Selina.
The Cliff-hanger in Episode 4 is also affected by your in-game choice as well, at the climax of the episode there are 2 options, Penguin who has taken over Wayne Enterprises by Episode 4 is hacking into Batman’s network which means he could control all the Bat-Tech, however at the same time Two-Face is driving up to Wayne Manor intent on hurting Bruce Wayne.
These are the consequences of the choices
Go to Wayne Manor: Stop Two-Face and save Wayne Manor, locking Two-Face in Arkham Asylum, however Penguin will succeed in smashing the Batcave’s firewall defences, Batman has no choice but to sacrifice his Bat-Tech, Episode 5 is carried out as normal, but Batman uses a different suit and must stop Lady Arkham without his Bat-Tech
Go to Wayne Enterprises: Batman stops Penguin from hacking into the Batcave but at the cost of Two-Face burning down Wayne Manor, Episode 5 is carried out with Batman using his Tech and a new and improved Batsuit.
Episode 5’s choice is slightly consequential because you have the choice to attend Gordons Speech as either Batman or Bruce Wayne, this also plays into the Joker tease at the end, if you attend as Bruce, Joker will say “see you soon, Brucie” but if you attended as Batman, Joker will say “It’s gonna be tough to top that”
You should buy this Game because it gives you control of the story, you get to influence how the story goes through the in-game choices, plus you get to change the colour of your Bat-Tech to make it unique and you choose how the story goes.
Tony also says that we may have enough skills to complete this advertorial by tomorrow
