Renowned art director Luke Whitelock shares how architects' workflows help him create sets for some of the major film studios. Rendering of a science fiction scene If you've ever seen a Disney, Marvel, or Warner Bros. movie, chances are you've seen Luke Whitelock's set design skills in action. Luke's best-known work was in the films Avengers: Infinity War and Inception , which film students will study for years. Producing the sets for these visual masterpieces is a very important job. Luke combines unique tools like the iPad and sci-fi models to streamline work and create incredible geometric combinations for his work. In his workflow, Luke moves from existing spaces to conceptual D modeling and back to the real world. He needs the right tools to be effective: iPad and desktop modeling, pre-designed sci-fi components, D documentation, and D printing. No one can be surprised that both approaches: set production and architecture, coincide quite a bit. Construction technology in film production.
The main technologies used in architecture, engineering and construction have been adapted over the years to build film sets, making Luke's job much more bearable. At first, he sketched scenes by hand on large drawing boards. Now, he's gone from analog sketching to drawing everything with SketchUp D modeling software. The film industry is booming. All the major UK studios are expanding and there are not enough staff with the necessary skills to meet demand. Architects who trained in the traditional way are moving into the film industry and do not need to Bahrain Email List start out as assistants thanks to their advanced modeling skills. Additionally, skills such as topographical measurements also have a place in set production. Luke modeling on the iPad from the couchLuke modeling on the iPad from the couch Trade your sketchbook for an iPad When Luke creates D models for a film set, his first step is to measure the existing space. He needs the detailed measurements of the location where the film will be shot, for example, door, wall and ceiling, as a starting point for creative exploration of it. Like many of us.
Luke used to record measurements of existing space the old-fashioned way; that is, noting the dimensions in his sketchbook. Then he usually needed several days before he could return to the studio and create a D model from the manual notes, which were sometimes difficult to read. Due to the fast pace of the film industry, Luke needed a more streamlined process. In , SketchUp launched modeling on iPad . The ability to accurately capture existing conditions directly into a digital format cut Luke's work time in the field in half, not to mention the time he saved in the studio by transferring manual notes to the computer. He now always carries an iPad wherever he needs to collect measurements to create accurate and comprehensive plans without having to return to his office. When he meets with the directors, Luke and his team use the iPad to show their plan for transforming the existing space. He saves time by making changes on the iPad during the meeting instead of writing notes that he will have to decipher later. Everyone can walk through the updated model in real time through SketchUp Scenes. "SketchUp for iPad is a great mobile tool that streamlines my workflow. With the Apple Pencil, it feels like you're drawing freehand, but it's in D. The interface is intuitive.
