Task 2 - Artistic Styles


Task 2-artistic styles

Photorealism

Photorealism is an artistic style in which an artist attempts to create a painting so precise and accurate that at first glance it can be mistaken for a photograph.

Photorealistic graphics in a game is used to make the game look life like as you are seeing it in real life such as Fifa, assassins creed, Grand Theft Auto, Watch Dogs, Tomb Raider, Need for Speed, Call of duty, Batman Arkham city. 
























Cell Shading
Cell shading is a type of non-photorealistic rendering designed to make computer graphics or appear to be hand-drawn.

Cell shading is often used to mimic the style of a comic book or cartoon.

Cell shading is used in Video games to give objects a hand drawn or cartoon-like appearance.































Abstraction

Abstraction is a process by which concepts are derived from the usage and classification of literal (real or concrete) concepts.

Abstractions may be formed by reducing the information content of a concept, typically to retain only information which is relevant for a particular purpose. 




























Exaggeration

Exaggeration is used in games, mostly in RPGs, this art style is used for anime and manga, and this art style is where the artist exaggerates many things within the game. For example the final fantasy character has a big sword to show that he is strong and powerful.

Exaggeration can be used to show emotions, as some characters have bigger eyes when sad and strong characters are more muscular.
