For the Visual Response brief we have to come up with something Visually Creative which relates to our essays that we've produces. The topics for the visual response are the same for the essay so it seems logical to use the same question as me essay which was about gender in animation, so for my visual response I have chosen to do it about how women have been represented in video games by there armour/clothing.
Above you can see that most of the women characters don't have the greatest clothing/armour in, which is not the best why to represent women in video games. Also in our days there are not that many female characters that has a good appearance because they're either there just for sex appeal or to make the game have people playing it because of an attractive character. Take the game TERA for instance because most of the women characters in the game hardly wear any clothing and armour, but the worst thing about that game is that there are little six year old girls that wear the same armour and the women do and it just looks wrong, thats why it's banned most places in the world.
So for my idea I am wanting to create a female character that wears the appropriate attire and not looking 'slutty', but who still looks like a badass character who you'd want to play as. For example like characters off of mirrors edge (Faith), The Last of Us (Ellie), Borderlands 2 (Maya), and Beyond Two Souls (Jodie).
