2. Reason For Making This Project

More Detail On The Project

When I knew I had free reign on what I do for the major project I knew I had to play to my strengths and because of that I chose to do Asset packs but just doing a single one was not enough for me since I already know people set these asset packs into various category’s such as Furniture, Buildings, Props, nature and many other category’s in many different ways so I need to make several asset packs and not just one.

Over the last few years I have learned that Making assets is my strenth and I should play to that If I want to succeed which Is why I plan to make money by making assets since Money is the penultimate goal for University Ie. Getting a job or becoming self sufficient and making your own capital, To which I want to be self sufficient and not be forced into a job I might not be able to get due to the current job market.

There are problems with trying to make your own money with game assets such as Rampant Competition overflowing the market, take the newly released Fab (3D models – fab) for example, There are hundreds of listings for various assets of every type and it seems overwhelming to get anywhere however There are ways to be noticed and gain traction and the first way is to release some assets for FREE and you can see that in these listings below but I’m going to have to look into other ways of how to be noticed later.

So the uses for my assets can be quite extensive but ultimately it will be other 3D creators in fields such as Game creation or animation but If I had to really think about it the list of things they could be used for would be long because of the versatility of assets and it seems a few of my classmates also thought this when we discussed it in a group.

A Big part of this project will Be the assets Pricepoint since I will need to analyse the market and find a good medium price so as not to undercut or overshoot the markets current prices, It will take quite a bit of research to find common ground for each of my packs since it will have to be valued also on points such as Detail, Style, Amount of assets and many other things.

I have previously released some of my old 3D models for FREE on places like Thingiverse (Thingiverse.com, Taminaion’s thingiverse profile) Though these were for 3D Printing I did Gain traction on one of the models And I think it was because of Keywords such as ‘Japanese’, ‘Shrine’ And such because those are quite popular things which means I can do the same on other places but this also shows how FREE assets can bring in Traction.
