Character Desgins: Astronaut Reserch Mindmap

Image
Continued doing research for my astronaut character, looking at more helmets and outfits to see what would suit the time period of the character and what I might want to use that might suit the characters personality. I'm still trying to stay in the 60's for the suits and the toy gun that I might want to accompany the character, so I looked at a range of various, older models and styles to give me a good range to explore and develop when I decide what I want the character to be.

Collaboration: Concept and Location Mind-maps

Image
 1. Vintage Comic book style and inspiration  2. Scene mind-map; looking at various action rooms and halls we could use to design the scene around.  3. Initial Mind-map. Visualising some of the earlier ideas and concepts and seeing what we wanted to stick with and what we wanted to develop onto. 4. Outfit designs. looking at some older film / tv superhero outfits to see what we could base some possible outfits on. Here are some mind maps that I constructed for some of the ideas for our collaboration prompt " Forgotten / Failed superheroes". Me and my team have discussed the idea of our skit taking place through superhero audition sequence and taking inspiration from old comic books and the vintage marvel style to give the piece a more stylistic theme. I looked at both comic book and film / tv show designs for the outfits and settings as well, because compared to todays standards the outfits don't appear as serious compared to some more recent superhero outfit...

SoundScape: Image Mind Maps

I had a lot of fun deciding what to add onto the sounds, making the mind maps I did manage to generate a lot of ideas, but I  feel I will find a lot more ideas once I get out into the field and start to get a more rounded idea of what it should sound like, as the way I divided these up I considered the individual noises more than the whole sound and how it will progress and so it might not all add up or become to overwhelming.
