FOR MYTHOLOGY COURSE

My mythology professor gave us an assignment to find how mythology has influenced pop culture and how the media changes the different aspects of certain mythical stories. So I decided to create a flash for god of war to show my classroom.

I decided to uses an old paper-like palette to make the story feel very aged; it felt appropriate for a mythological story. It is like the paper is telling the story of Kratos. Also, I didn't want to piss of my professor by showing full blown violence and nudity in color, so I took the offensive.

Anyways, I read all the reviews for Nintendo Power and took into account of what people have complained about. I made sure that there were sound effects and voices. I also put in a lot more action so people wouldn't have to worry about just a flash that shows characters. I used the plot from the first god of war to create a narrative for plot.

I know I used the God of War 2 theme for this flash even though the story is about the first God of War, but I enjoyed the music. Also, its weird to see that God of War: Chains of Olympus is coming so soon. I really wasn't aiming to release this flash because the game was coming out, but now that I know I'm glad that I did. I honestly can't wait to get my hands on a new God of War.
