STUDIO BRIEF 1: Project Proposal Project Rationale What do you intend to do and why? I intent to develop a series of character, artefacts, and/or scenes, essentially world building, but based on an existing tale, story or mythology. I will explore character design and concept art, developing concept work for film and exploring new processes such as 3D sculpting and printing. Creating concept art and character design for film and video games is something that I’ve been interested in but haven't had as much as a chance to explore, this project will allow me to find out more about the processes & industry.
THEMES / SUBJECTS GENERAL THEMES: I will look at mythology and interpret the characters, artefacts and scenes from the said myths. SPECIFIC SUBJECTS: I intend on developing characters and a world in which they exist, using ancient greek mythology as inspiration. Specifically, I would like to look at the mythological wars the Titanomachy or the Gigantomachy. While ancient greek gods are quite extensively used as inspiration within illustration, I think that the wars are something that have not been depicted or re-imagined as much. I think that I would be able to approach them from a new angle and create something a bit more unique. PRACTICAL & CONCEPTUAL APPLICATION
