Final Game Studies Proposal

For my final game studies project I wanted to do an art project, but as I expressed in an earlier post I didn't know what to do it on. After my most recent class I decided to take the topic of hardcore gamers and their stereotypes and turn it into a piece that reflects me and my interests (as far as video games go). I wanted to express the the absurdness of how "casual gamers" or people who just down right hate games see us (the hardcore gamers), and since it's going to be reflecting me I chose to portray this idea using a Left 4 Dead theme. As of now the idea in my head is to have a Boomer sitting on a bed playing Guitar Hero or some other "super nerdy" game with junk food and caffeinated drinks covering the floor. I chose the Boomer because he's fat (which all people think hardcore gamers are) and because he represents the epitome of lazy with his sweats and his one sock that's only half on. Depending on how much time I will have to work on this I may include other special infected from the Left 4 Dead franchise to portray different aspects of gamers; we'll see. The only concern I have by taking this approach is with the PowerPoint presentation and the written portion of this assignment. I have some ideas on what I am going to do, but I'm not sure if they will be enough to meet the minimum length requirements for both of those aspects.
