Kaikee Perry Capstone Project

Posted on by

For my capstone project, I want to focus on the topic of the effect videogames has on an individual’s mind. There are some individuals who believe that videogames are a deterrent to a individual’s overall behavior and decision-making. I want to reveal the counter argument to this thought, showing the proven positive effects videogames can have on an individual, such as being more aware of your current surroundings and increasing one’s creativity and open-mindedness when problem solving.

For the two media objects, I plan to create an infographic file and an animation. The infographic will concisely describe important facts about my argument, as well as show graphs and statistics. Most of the infographic will be visual. I want to tie the images of the infographic to the animation to bring a sense of connectedness to my project. What I mean is that if I draw a controller for my infographic, I am going to use that controller in my animation. The animation is going to go more in depth about the facts and information about the positive effects videogames have on the mind.

The website is going to have a home page that has links to the animation and the infographic pieces. The home page is going to have a brief statement about my topic and have links to other websites that you can visit to find out more about videogames and the mind. Sources I want to look at to defend my cause are going to be mostly scholarly.
