OUGD603 Brief 5: Mayan Project

Collaboration Brief


One of my favourite areas of Graphic Design is the design of Prop and sets within film and tv. From the gorgeous designs from the likes of the Grand Budapest hotel and harry potter, all the way to the out of this world sci-fi designs of blade runner and alien. For this Brief, I’ll be working collaboratively with an illustrator in creating a series of prop designs from a book yet to be adapted for the big screen.

This project is a personal one for both me and my collaboration partner Kyle Prior. Both of us have a huge interest in the movie industry, particularly within the prop design aspect of the production. This collaboration aims to produce work similar to the world building designers within the film industry.

One of the biggest inspirations for this project is the recent Black Panther movie. We were inspired by how the design department for the film had created this modern city of Wakanda while also incorporating the many age-old cultures of Africa. This concept ultimately led the project as we thought the idea of creating a world inspired by an ancient culture would be an interesting brief.
