4) CONCRETE MODEL






The images above show some views of the concrete model, while I was shooting these images I have tried to play with lights and smoke in order to create a more interesting atmosphere, which could suggest the idea of a sci-fiction moviescape.

In order to create the set for the "Brutalist City" I decided to make a model experimenting with concrete, a material very spot on for the kind of architecture I wanted to represent. 
The aim was to create a model which could resemble a brutal and concrete cityscape, to be then used during the shooting of the movie. 

I decided to use plastic packages from different products as formworks for the concrete, because they seemed very suitable for the kind of industrial and repetitive shapes I wanted to create.

The outcome is quite interesting especially with the help of special lighting and post production effects although I am working on the concrete shapes in order to improve the composition and the quality.
