Week 4 (and 5) Assignment Brief
Environment Design
This week, choose either "Jack's Hometown" or "Aku Ville."
You will design the other location next week.
Week 4: focus on organic/natural environment and architecture
Week 5: focus on man-made, futuristic and industrial environment and architecture
(If your story/IP doesn't support either organic or futuristic elements, then just try your best)
- Practice breaking down and remixing information from your references
- Be creative, generate a variety of architectural landmarks for this location (try to have at least 5-6 distinct ideas)
- Can include various supporting elements to help "frame" and support the main structure (small props, vegetation, etc)
- As usual, post your creative brief, your ref/mood boards, and a numbered/labeled spread of your sketches

Jack the God Killer:
Stoic
Determined
Stranger
“Jack” is a member of an elite group of advanced humans who orbit the new Earth
in stasis. He awakes from his cryo sleep to perform routine maintenance on the
Cyber Gods but when he awakens he
finds all his kind missing, and Aku, Goddess of Nature, controlling New Earth.
Cast down to the planet in a failed attempt at reaching Aku’s satellite, Jack is now at the mercy of
a planet over run by terror.
Fortunetely, Jack is equipped with superhuman strength and all manner of advanced equipment, including “The God
killer” a gun powerful enough to
sever Aku’s link with her satellite.
However these supplies are limited and they must use their cunning to navigate
through the world.
Jack is seen as a stranger to the humble villages of New Earth and paints
himself as a target not just to
his nemesis but the people he’s trying to save.
Jack represents the bitter pill and necessity of death.
Jack could be male or female, all that matters is he kicks ass to synthwave
music.

He is the leader of the rebellion alongside Ewen. Endowed with extraordinary powers and trained to use them, he will become more powerful than the high twins at the head of the country, and wishes to overthrow their government. Hunted by the Jumoirs, he prepares to face them one day and was, before the tragic loss of his twin, the only hope of the people.
