ENVIRONMENT ART | TIME MACHINE
Inspired by space-time continuum and early 1900’S science fiction, Will’s Time Machine has the rough aesthetic of a Tesla invention.
Will initially sketched each design concept to keep thoughts and ideas fresh while researching the Einstein era. The scene building process was broken into 3 stages: Central Focal Point – the time machine; Room Layout – leading the player into the scene while supporting the narrative with props carefully positioned around the scene; Lighting – using directional and point lights coupled with VFX to underscore the mood.
