Studio brief 1- Meet the Pyro

Meet the Pyro- Team Fortress 2

This is an introductory character for a game called 'Team Fortress'. This was created by Team Fortress themselves as it helps promote the new characters for their games by showing their back story but also what they are like as people which is very different as most games dont do that.This animation is also very interesting because the characters come as blank models for certain programmes so they can be the same looking characters that can be manipulated by the creator, so this lets the fans create their own animations and therefor help them promote their game.

These character designs are looking at the stereotypes of the human form, if they're supposed to be buff, they are extremely over buff and if they are skinny, they are overly skinny. This is quite an important thing for the characters though because the game has added mass and weight to the characters which is really good because if they are big they are slower and the skinny characters are swift and light.

This animation is for older people as it includes violence and blood within it, it also includes themes that children would not understand, like mental disorders and mass murder. The message this is all telling is that if you choose to play the game round with this character, he sets everything on fire leaving nothing behind which is all you need to know, this animation is just to comically show a little extra.
