The game is named after the sword, which is able to wield power and change the landscape of the virtual simulation the characters live in. There\u2019s visual themes of technology that reflect the world and sword. Not only is the sword an effective tool, but it\u2019s inhabited by the protagonist\u2019s lover and speaks with your character. It acts as a narrator for the game and the player quickly grows emotionally attached to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-04-at-2.43.13-PM-1024x533.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-698\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-04-at-2.43.13-PM-1024x533.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-04-at-2.43.13-PM-300x156.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-04-at-2.43.13-PM-768x400.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-04-at-2.43.13-PM-1536x800.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-04-at-2.43.13-PM-2048x1067.png 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Screen-Shot-2022-04-04-at-2.43.13-PM-1600x833.png 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>illustrator file of the sword.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"21 22 p6 Digital Layered Art LetitiaP\" width=\"920\" height=\"518\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GzXWL74Gx90?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>Layers of the sword digitally assembled.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I used Adobe Illustrator to create the shapes and paths for the laser cutter. I colored each of the pieces by hand with markers and assembled it to the best of my abilities. It&#8217;s my first time doing a physical project like this. It was a fun challenge to design a 3-Dimension piece. I needed to account for physical limitations, such as weight distribution. I used my knowledge from 3D modeling in Animation to imagine and plan the build. I knew I needed the blade to not be too heavy with the accessories it\u2019s holding so the handle wouldn\u2019t snap off. To accomplish this, I made the handle two layers thick and tried to keep weight evenly distributed across the sword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG_5393-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-703\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG_5393-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG_5393-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG_5393-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG_5393-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG_5393-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LetitiaP\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/IMG_5393-1600x1200.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption>More pieces are colored.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A feature that can\u2019t be captured on camera is the sword\u2019s ability to glow.

The first one I had was this sword, but after trying out many other concepts, I only felt more convinced to do this. I\u2019m very happy I did so. The coloring really makes the piece stand out and I can hold it as if it\u2019s the actual sword. If I were to do this again, I think I would\u2019ve chosen a lighter color for the circuits so they contrast against the blue blade.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Digital Media, we created a Multi Layer Art Piece using Adobe illustrator and laser cutting it.
