Week 5 - Final Fantasy 7

Final Fantasy 7 is a PlayStation one game released in 1997. It follows the main character Cloud as he tries to save the world.
The first picture shows the city of Midgar, a city that uses up a lot of the resources of the earth, and is separated between the rich and the poor. Looking at all the grey smoke and metal, the player will instantly assume that this is a city of factories. There are next to no bright colours,everything is quite dark and dull. The area used to be green but since all the city has been using the environment resources, the health of the area has died.
The second picture shows a section of the inside of Midgar. It contains a lot of green but not in the good healthy sort of way. The town looks polluted and the bits f grey scrap metal make it look like a rubbish tip. The viewer will probably feel this place is an area of poverty and full of dirt, making them quite curious.
In the third picture, we see an average forest with a glowing light at the end of the trees. The area is a healthy green, which will make the player feel this is a calm place with no threats. The light source at the end of the forest may also be leading to the exit or the goal.
The forth picture shows my favourite scene of the game. The town of Nibelheim has been burned along with its inhabitants. The mood as you enter this area is a very scared confused one, since there is bright yellows and reds flames coming from every angle of the screen, which is quite a shock when only moments ago the area was full of colours and life. The fact that there isn't a single area of the town that isn't in yellow engulfing flames makes the player feel like there's no way of saving this place, there is no hope left, the town is done for.
The last picture shows the chamber that leads to the evil character of the game. the player gets this vibe that this is a dangerous place instantly by the highly saturated reds. There are actually people being kept in the steel cocoons on either side of the stairs, and the viewer knows this by the glowing tinted blue light that's being admitted from there, suggesting there is a life form sleeping within it. I think this scene was well done, because of the amount of redness and the strength of it, I was instantly terrified when I entered this room. I knew something big was going to happen and it made me prepare myself for what was to come.
