Task 2 – Setting Research and Ideas Generation

Space Station Research and Ideas Generation

 Films











Images 1 & 2 are taken from the film Alien. The setting of these images appears dark and grimy. I think these are good images because they seem mysterious and give the setting some edge.  In contrast to this image 3 from Star Wars appears more clinical and like a lab setting. The other images are also taken from Star Wars. Images 4 & 5 are mysterious and image 6 gives the impression of another world outside the window so it is futuristic.  

TV







Images 1 & 2 are taken from the TV series Star Trek. The interior appears friendly and welcoming although it is very basic. Image 3 is taken from Doctor Who. This image is enticing because of its use of bright colours. In contrast to this image 4 taken from Red Dwarf is very plain although it does have a lot of detail in the imagery. Finally image 5 is taken from Blake’s 7. This interior is very dark and basic. 

Animation





Images 1 & 3 are taken from the video game Mass Effect. Image 1 uses darker colours and appears to be an abandoned areas. Where as in image 3 the environment is very clean and appears more looked after. Image 2  is taken from the video game Dead Space. This environment looks eerie and mysterious. The final image is taken from Metroid (a video game) this environment is quite simplistic and is similar to image 1. 

Space Station Maps



I have looked at some different images of space station maps. These have given me ideas for how I would like to layout my space station. I think it is a good idea to have a key colour system so different colour represent different areas of the map. For example: Medical = Red.
