ZOOTOPIA POST #8: DESIGNING MAYOR LIONHEART AND ASST. MAYOR BELLWEATHER’S OFFICES
Early on I didn’t know where to put Asst. Mayor Belleweather’s desk. So I placed it right outside the mayor’s office in a very insignificant corner. Then it was decided to put her in her own office – the Maintenance Room 🙂 Every now and then, I’ll plot my layout by building a simple mock up in Sketch Up.
ZOOTOPIA POST #9: DESIGNING JUDY HOPPS’ APARTMENT
Zootopia is still no. 1 on its third weekend! Here are my Judy Hopps’
apartment designs. In earlier version, she had bunny dolls on her bed, a
long photo of her siblings, and also a scene showing the exterior
neighborhood. Happy Monday everyone!
ZOOTOPIA POST #10: DESIGNING THE MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY – PART 1
The fun challenge in designing the environment is incorporating a good balance of literal and subliminal animal-like patterns and designs in the anthropomorphic architecture. The exterior must have those sensibilities but should not look like Monsters, Inc. These are concepts I did based from earlier version of the story. Time of day: daytime/normal hours of operation. Can you spot the hidden Mickey? 🙂 More on the next post…
ZOOTOPIA POST #3: JUMBEAUX CAFE
Have some jumbo pop from Jumbeaux Cafe to celebrate ZOOTOPIA’s record breaking opening weekend!!! Here are my designs for that location. Can you spot the hidden elephants? 🙂 enjoy
ZOOTOPIA POST #4: NICK’S APARTMENT.
In the earlier version of the movie, the story revolves around Nick’s point of view instead of Judy’s. He had a sequence showing his dingy apartment at the basement of a building. I had to pull up references from photos of utility rooms, dismal service floors, and abandoned building basements to design his space. Fun.
ZOOTOPIA POST #5: RODENTIA APARTMENTS INTERIOR DESIGN
Designing Rodentia apartment Interiors for our little mammals in the movie. Early story has a couple of scenes inside these apartments. Gave me an opportunity to pay homage to the classic Disney style 🙂 Go and see the movie if you haven’t done so…or watch it again if you have 🙂
