The Art of Isolation

Greetings, one and all! Wow… how things have changed. The journey we began in late 2017 is now over, and all the episodes of STORMBORN have been released to the public. I want to take a moment and thank everyone who came along with us on the journey. To those who’ve worked with us, you did great things, and it was a joy to get to know y’all. To those who watched our show, thank you for watching, and your kind comments. To one and all, it’s been a pleasure. 

Now, that may seem a bit pensive to some, but there’s something else to bear in mind here. It has now been 15 days since I’ve seen anyone outside of my immediate family. So I may be a shade more nostalgic than normal. The world continues to go nuts, and I think I’ve finally reached the point of saturation, where the crazy is just the new norm. Fortunately, that means I can now be annoyed by the fact that I just can’t get this raider costume design right, like a good filmmaker, as opposed to being frustrated by people playing politics while the world burns. So, y’know, small victories. :P

Fortunately, this means I can bring you sneak peeks into the design process as it stands. Not quite as active or colorful as the stunt team, but still moderately shiny.

As you can see, we have a general fantasy aesthetic going here, one that apparently involves a lot of scarves and sashes… Some of this production design will go into the preparation for a promo short, or, failing that, some decent proof of concept footage. (Knowing what one will be able to do in lockdown is tough.) If we’re very fortunate, we may actually have photos from the start of that process in the next few weeks here.

Well, that’s about all for this week. Until next time!
