Finals

The final 5 results for my boat shed, the hippest new music venue in town. Influenced by my love of music from early childhood (thanks dad!) and having songs which have had significant meaning to me throughout the stages of my life. The patterns are representative of my home country French Polynesia as well as somewhat reflecting my nature to draw all over everything, especially when I'm not supposed to be. The boat shed comes equipped with a roof that folds out as a view platform, two LED flowing wavelike monitors (grew up with the sea and waves) weave in and out of the walls, displaying graphics that move to the music. Being a musician myself, I decided to deck the place out with inbuilt amps and a default drumkit (for those like myself that aren't picky and enjoy the sounds of various kits at various venues) as well as a "dock" (much like you'd find for an iPod) to add and remove drums and symbols without the needs to constantly be changing microphone setups. The boat shed is always open for performances under the starry night sky, and is easily compacted for day time practices. It is colourful, bright, loud and ambient in the blackness of the night. A light in the dark.

Sketchup to Cryengine

First steps of putting the boatshed into Cryengine. It's too small :(


New model! Unfortunately couldn't get Fraps working on my laptop, so screenshots it is :/

Drawing on windows

Experimenting with drawing on a surface not normally intended to be drawn on. (Fun fact, drew it backwards on my window so it could be seen from the outside 7th floor walkway)

Red Robin

Nothing to do with the boat shed per se, more just an experiment of the use of patterns on a different subject matter.

The Boat Shed, your new music venue.







Picture "The Boat Shed"...you're premiere music venue. A small place with a really good vibe and a cool place to have music. Viewers can crowd atop the new roof which folds out as a spectator area, as well as on a floating moshpit/seated area (depending on the act). The shed is fully equipped with built in amps and jacks for instruments and pedals, as well as a basic drum kit and drum kit grid, so that drummers can easily swap drums and symbols in and out whilst not having to worry about micing up the kit. The design is very pattern heavy because it is.
