A Series of Unfortunate Events

Props Study - CCM 2015

Production Photos

A prompt was given to create a props vignette/ character study based on a space occupied by a character in a book. I chose Lemony Snicket’s hideaway after he had finished the thirteenth and final book from A Series of Unfortunate Events.

 

Scenic Design

Details

In the vignette, I included over 22 book specific props (at least one for each book), decided the arrangement and style for all props (including the furniture), and created 9 specific paper ephemera pieces. A budget, a “look book”, and a props list were composed to keep the design in tact.

PhotoShop

A picture was taken in the CCM props storage facility and then taken into Photoshop so that the environment could be digitally manipulated to match the mood. I taught myself how to manipulate the environment in Photoshop without prior education.
