ArtworkPlan

And here (yet again), is the 4 step plan we will be following:

Ponder:

This cycle phase consists entirely to determine the general artistic direction for a given release. The result of this cycle should be a relatively short listing of concepts that will lead the direction of all artistic driven elements. So, basically, the overall look. Will it be spirals? Trees? Flames? Glassy?

======== Ponder Results http://wiki.gnewsense.org/ArtworkPlan/Ponder ========

Propose:

Having gathered a finite listing of guidelines from the first cycle, the team is now free to send in submissions that meet these underlying requirements.

Submissions should be loose. Scans of paper napkins from the night before (or similar rough work :D ) are encouraged.

-Keep ideas flexible enough to cooperate or stimulate others. -Don't exert any more effort than is necessary to communicate the desired look and feel.

======== PROPOSE GO GO! http://wiki.gnewsense.org/ArtworkPlan/Propose ========

Produce:

Submissions should now be centered around the direction taken. Based on the evaluation of the team members, each of these distinct vantages on the propositions are distilled into a small handful of candidates. Filter and evolve relevant prospects.

Polish:

This cycle sees the entire batch of new artwork attain a polished level of professionalism. All art should be considered at this juncture with care taken to not over-exert resources on low priority items.

How we will do it:

We will be utilizing all 3 major forms of communication, IRC, Mailing List, and the Wiki of course! Each section will have it's own page when we get to it, and there will be an "Incoming" section with all the submissions+ideas you have made. So, wanna get to it? I'm going to start off stage 1 right now, just throw through as many ideas as you can!
