Trouble in Paradise

This design of Samson Raphaelson's classic story, "Trouble in Paradise", reimagines Mariette's Parisian Apartment.

Pride & Prejudice

Although it was cut from the final script of Joe Wright's Pride and Prejudice, the Lucas' Drawing Room was initially the setting of a pivotal moment in the original screenplay. This design project portrays the set as it was described in the script while taking inspiration from the film itself in terms of aesthetic and tone.

The Spinning Jester Café

Inspired by the iconic tea cup rides found at circuses around the world as well as depictions of jesters in Medieval era artwork, this concept for animation combines modern day circus architecture with the iconography of the Middle Ages. The result is an entirely unique coffee shop for both clowns and jesters to enjoy.

Oklahoma Dust Bowl Kitchen

After thorough research into the living spaces of those affected by the Dust Bowl, this project portrays how a set depicting an Oklahoma kitchen during this era would be appropriately decorated.

A Streetcar Named Desire 

A modern day retelling of Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire is told through this series of conceptual mood boards.

Frog and Toad

Taking inspiration from Arnold Lobel's "Frog and Toad" children's stories, this design project explores their world as it would be portrayed on film.

Tatooine

This project takes the existing Blue Sky Ranch backlot and digitally transforms it into the planet "Tatooine" of the Star Wars universe. As a group project, we were each given a section to digitally design, model, and decorate.

Little Women

Focusing on set decoration, this project reimagines the classic story of Little Women, setting it in 1963 Greenwich Village, New York.

Dracula

These conceptual mood boards depict a retelling of Dracula by Bram Stoker, now set in 1930's era Hamilton, Ohio. Once a rising city, Hamilton is turning to become a declining factory ghost town riddled with the effects of the Great Depression.
