Korine Parreno BFA Animated Arts Thesis Spring 2021
Welcome to the The Grand Parade of the Apocalypse, where Persona Meets Fallout! A video game that asks, What would you do if you possessed the Eyes of God?
In the world of PURG, there hides a dangerous power gifted by the Greater God. Amnesiac, Mika wakes up one day to find herself stranded in PURG. Along with the dangers lurking around, she meets Keith and Regis who offer to help her out. There’s only one condition: Help them find the Eyes of God.
Join Mika, Keith and Regis on a series of psychologically thrilling quests in a race against time, to collect the Eyes before they fall into the wrong hands.
This project originally started as a story about three friends exploring a world that was devastated by a global disaster, because at that time I was trying to find a way to cope with what was happening in 2020. As time went on, it expanded into exploring the whole concept of religion and myth along with forming my own ideas about a greater cosmic entity existing. Sure, One God could have created an Earth, but who created God and enforced the idea of creation?
My thesis became more about exploring different techniques and approaches to storytelling as well appreciating the process when it comes to producing the outcome of the work.
