Abstract
This creative project explores some major issues about visual communication in digital games. The project will continue to address new questions and invite questions from my visual and communication design colleagues. My hope is that, through this document, designers will see digital games like photography was seen around the turn of the century, and movies in the 1950’s and 60’s. In other words, as a rich new medium that offers creative people a virtually unexplored environment in which to work and create.
