The Nintendo industry has been a big part of my life for many years , i have decided to have a research in how it started and who started the gaming industry. 

Through out the years Nintendo has created many games and consoles to entertain the world and they have successfully succeeded but how did they get so big ?.  

The color TV Game series was the first color console that you play at the comfort of your own home. The first game for this console was Light Tennis that has a similar lay out to Pong. This console soon got out faced due to the fact you could not play any other games than just the one.  

The next game that soon met the eye and became very popular world wide was Nintendo entertainment system. This became allot more popular rather than The color TV Game series.

My favorite Nintendo game has to be Zelda.
My favorite game has to be Twilight Princess the art work, and concept art for this game is to amazing for words. When I was looking into the game in more depth I found out that one of the concept artist is Yusuke Nakano.
Unfortunately there is not much about this artist that i could find. But the whole franchise of this game is truly amazing. The concept art is something that i highly admire.













This is one of the books that I have and I highly recommend it . It goes through the history of Zelda and the characters and how they are developed.

This is the kind of art work that highly adore.

As I was researching through the history of the game i found out that allot of inspiration came from mythology.
When you start looking in depth on the story line it can become rather hard to follow, Hyrule was formed many years ago through the works of the three Golden Goddesses: Din the goddess of the power.As you can see from the image shown below.

Peter Popken 

Is a film concept artist, i found him as i was researching film concept artist. I found out that he worked on Thor for marvel and many more films that are very well known. He has also worked for Disney , Paramount and warner Bros  and many more. He has also developed his carer by working for Sony Ps3 as a game concept artists. 

Peter was born in Germany and studied Graphic design. When Peter finished his education  he went in to story boarding in animation. and then moved to all different areas in the entertainment industry.

Peter explains what his role in the concept industry is to draw the story to real life and make it more visual. His focus is on storytelling and he sets the mood for the film and each sequence.

The difference on concept on film and game is film is shorter. Film can take 3 to 6 months and a game can take up to 6 years. He works on many different soft wares that's what brought my eye to his work, as I am trying the software my self. 

This kind of area of Industry is what i am interested in. 

I like concept art and I personally collect the books for film and games.

I like how this peice of work looks like a oil painting, this technique is created on Photoshop.
