Set Design

Since visiting the Container Plus studio in London, iv become interested in the of working in set design. My major project has unintentionally been going this way, and talking to Luise Vormittag has, in my mind, opened up a few possibilities for my work. The idea had never occured to me before, id assosiated set design with some really wierd people doing theatre and earning fuck all money from it. But seeing some of the projects that Container Plus have worked on such as promotional events and launches for companies such as Topshop and MTV, has really inspired me. And then from having looked online, iv realized the opportunities for set design within the TV industry. I remember a show on MTV years ago called headbangers ball, Rob Zombie did the set for that, it was some mental trippy nightmare scene that i cant find to use as an example here, it was mint though.

So basically iv become pretty interested in this, as i think that model making is a skill iv definetly got, and the more iv got into this over the past year, the more iv been kind of dissollusioned , not knowing where my work could fit in, or what it even has to do with illustration anyway. I need to do alot more reasearch into the idea, but for now heres a few examples of some stuff i like, by a company called 3D Creations. Theyve done stage designs for Iron Maiden, who i personally think are shit, but would be an amazing job to have anyway. Other stuff includes sets for museum exhibits, corporate events and launches, channel 4 sets and yes, alot of theatre.
