Favourite Game

My Favourite Game

Battlefield 1 is currently my favourite game to play. I have been playing it since it's release in 2016 and although I take a break from it to put time into other games I always find I come back to it. Battlefield 1's campaign is short and fun, with a lot of insight into the history of WW1. The multiplayer feature is where I spend my time in the game though, playing in battles of 32 vs. 32 players on each team, spread across some of the largest battlefields of WW1. The game is beautifully made, with realistic graphics and animations and the playable maps in the game take direct influence from photos and stories of the real battlefields from the time.

    Hi Chris. I have never played this game but it seems like a really fun one. I love call of duty which has a similar theme to it so I would say I would love this game too. Your writing style is great and easy to understand. Your blog is very professional yet conversational at the same time. Great blog!

Introduction to a Future Game Developer & Film Producer

Introduction A photo of me taken by James Reynolds My name is Christopher Carney, and I'm an aspiring Creative Digital Media student hailing from IT Blanchardstown (soon to be one of three campuses as part of the Technological University of Dublin). I have interests in everything digital media from graphic design to filmography and everything in between. I'm a 'jack of all trades, master of none' who is constantly looking to challenge and better themselves, yearning to learn and gain experience in anything I can try my hand at. Education After I completed my leaving certificate in 2015 I went on to study in Dunboyne College of Further Education for two years. In my first year I studied Sound Engineering & Music Production at FETAC Level 5 in 2015. This was a fun and active year long course in which I expanded on my previous knowledge of music production, and learned a lot about sound engineering. We organised a gig that year as part of our course in whi...

Unity Tutorial 01

Unity Logo - Source Having started with the three Unity tutorials I can say I am excited to delve further into game development over the next few weeks. The first tutorial is a bit slow and of course I sat there frustrated because I wanted to dive straight into making games but towards the end of the video it picks up a bit and we get into making basic hills on a blank terrain. In the second tutorial we get into using assets and adding texture on to the terrain. I found this simple enough and was happy to play around with the brush tools and the opacity and height to create different hills, and to smooth them out or make them jagged. I am already getting ideas for how I can use this in future projects/game worlds and I can see how they utilised it in mountainous areas in games such as Skyrim. It was nice to use the dirt and grass textures to add colour to the world, even though they were quite basic looking to what would be in a finished game. The third tutorial shows us how to w...

Wikipedia Trail, from Christopher Nolan to Intuition

by Friedrich Eduard Bilz dated 1894 - Source Today I followed a Wikipedia trail starting with a topic that we covered in college. I decided to start at Christopher Nolan 's Wikipedia page as we had watched scenes from Memento (2000), as part of our Digital Video Techniques. I am really fond of Christopher Nolan's work, and Memento  is a great movie but I particularly love The Dark Knight Trilogy  (2005-12) and Inception  (2010). His most recent film Dunkirk  (2017) is a cinematic masterpiece, and won Nolan the Academy Award for Best Director. In the article it mentioned how "Nolan's films are typically rooted in epistemological and metaphysical themes", and I decided to follow the link on the word " metaphysical ". Metaphysics is "the branch of philosophy that studies the essence of a thing" meaning it questions "being, becoming, existence and reality". The word Metaphysics comes from the Greek word meaning 'beyond nature...
