Command Magellan Production: Magellan Corridor / Set Building

Here is some of my concept art (top left) along with production shots from the upcoming sci-fi film Command Magellan.  ​These images are of the interior corridor set pieces found in the starship Magellan.  The green screen or chroma keying is used in post production for compositing two images together based on color hues.  My concept art in the top left shows how the green screen areas along the corridor sides will be windows or porthole areas with space visible beyond.  This is a very talented and dedicated production team and it's great being able to contribute and see all the elements come together.   

I'll post more soon.  

Destino

Recently I was asked to contribute to judging the Arties Awards for the illustration category at John Brown University for the West Gallery Student Works Exhibit running from February 19 - March 14 along with a very special exhibit featuring original production work from the short film Destino the collaborative animated short film effort of Walt Disney Company and Surrealist artist Salvador Dali.  This film began in 1945 and was eventually completed and released in 2003 and thanks to assistant professor of visual arts Joel Armstrong for having me down to participate.
