For my honours project I have to "identify a project that you will agree with your tutor that is tailored to your individual needs, interests, skills, knowledge and aspirations."
So the main avenues of design are 2D/concept art, 3D/character art, 3D/environment art, level design and game concept design.
Because I aim to be a producer/designer I will be exploring Design (both level and concept). For which I will be using UDK (Unreal Development Kit) as I have a loose grip on the engine in addition to it being easily accessible.
