Statement of intent.

I am gong to make an inlay sheet for a new video game. My video game is based around a female character, based on the star wars movies. I will have two representations of her, one being reactionary and sexualised by wearing revealing clothing and quoting stereotypical ”blonde” comments. The other being a strong and non gender conforming. A realistic picture of what a female fighting ‘bad guys’ with appropriate and realistic outfit would look. This representation of this character would be smart and quick thinking like a male character would be defined in a video game. I want to focus on the characters being no different other than their actual gender.

I want incorporate both reactionary and radical aspects. The female characters will be dressed as closely as possible to what a male would wear which is radical since females are stereotypically dressed in much tighter clothing which is contrasting to males. The character dressed in Tighter clothes will be reactionary since it is stereotypical for a female to dressed in. This will make her look like the ‘damsel in distress’. I will use a Paradigm, lots of signs that have a connection. Such as Tie fighters, The Millennium Falcon, and well known settings in the movies, on the print product.

I would like my final print product of my cover to be eye-catching and interesting. (a lot to look at), but neat at the same time. I want it to immediately communicate star wars and the aesthetic of fighters, star ships and well known characters, i.e.: Darth Vader, obi-wan Kenobi and Padme.

My age rating will be 15+, in order to be able to show the reactionary outfit of one of my characters as her breasts and bottom will be exposed slightly to promote the ideals of media sexualising and why is it obviously wrong. This would be inappropriate for anyone younger. The language of my radical character would be intelligent and intuitive which younger audiences wouldn’t understand.
