SoonChild
First Ideas
My initial design stage included very bright colours and strange shapes.
I wanted to show the magical drugged effect that shamans have when taking thier medicine and going into a trance.
I also looked at glowing signs and melting city scape to connect to the dnagerous warnings of the melting ice caps.
Costume designs
Here are some photos of the ideas i had researched before
designing the costumes for the characters.

Sketchup Designs
Trying the different techniques of SketchUp added ready made objects and placing them into a set to see different scales.
At this point I was focused on making a neon city scape surrounded by tress and ice caps.

Finished pictures
Here are some photos of the making of the models for the set.
Shaman area with all the potions and bottls.
This area is filled with moss flooring and natureistic elements.
Here is the black out tunnel where the children will enter and see their neon paint lit up.
The rest of the set is covered in moss aswell and melted iceburges .
The smoke will be used when the wolves enter and the hanging cloth will be used for No problem to be shadowed.
