This document provides a summary of a student's progress through their course and their plans for their final major project (FMP). The student plans to create a horror video game for their FMP. They are interested in both horror and video games, so this project allows them to combine those interests. As horror is their favorite genre in both video games and movies, this project is important to them. They have researched other horror games and artists as initial influences and plan to evoke feelings of suspense, despair, and paranoia through dark, moody colors and production techniques for the intended tone and style of their project.

you, compared with what you knew and could do before you started the course, and how
this has influenced your choice of pathway and your FMP.
