ART DIRECT THAT LOCATION (2015)

American Film Institute class project in which an existing location is transformed into a Rare Books and Manuscripts Library C. 2100. 

The design concept is to create the illusion of an ever-extending and stretching labyrinth resulting in the feeling of unlimited, expanding space as we travel further into the depths. 

The concept is accomplished by applying a combination of mirrored floors and ceilings in conjunction with pathways of solid flooring and ceiling areas, to shape a series of bridges and landings, and create the in-camera effect of never-ending space.

Capote

Redesign of Bennet Miller's 2005 CAPOTE (2015)

American Film Institute class project in which the set of Truman and Jack's Brooklyn Heights Home is designed based on script alone. 

The design concept is to emphasise the contrast of the empty, slow and plain world of Kansas with the full, busy and eclectic world of New York. 

This concept is accomplished in the New York set through the use of ornate detailing, strong vertical elements, and the eccentric and eclectic materials of Truman Capote's life.
