The Set

The first image you see here is the larger portion of my set, the left side of the desk. There will be a bit more clutter laying around in the final product, stacks of papers, maybe a book or two, but I'm leaving it as is for now. The guy in the picture frame is a man named Ton Roosendaal. He practically created the software that I'm using to do this project, and still heads up the development out in Amsterdam.

This second image is the beginnings of my original set. It was going to be an old office, with the desk in the center, the idea being that a graphic artist worked there. But instead, I dumped that idea and went to the black emptiness that you see in the current image. Why? Because creating a full sized room would have put my character, Jack, up against an crazy oversized world. I didn't want that. I wanted him to be in a world that was perfectly his size. The room would have made him look much smaller, even with while keeping the camera in close to him.
