Adobe’s Principal Designer Russell Brown is teaming up with the award-winning Stan Winston School of Character Arts on an amazing project for the Adobe MAX conference Oct 4-8 in Los Angeles. The Kaiju Project will gather some of the most creative minds in the entertainment industry to design and build two massive walk-around monster suits.
These eight-foot-tall Kaiju will be brought to life as part of the Russell Brown@MAX preconference session that will focus on movie poster design. Attendees will learn how to photograph, edit, and composite compelling movie monster posters using Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop CC. When they're done, each student will have mastered some great new skills in advanced image editing and discovered unique ways to use Adobe’s latest mobile tools. Even if you can’t attend the MAX preconference, you can still get involved by helping us design these marauding mega-monsters. To enter the Kaiju Design contest, simply share your ORIGINAL giant monster art on the Stan Winston School Facebook wall, where it will be seen by millions of creature fans around the world. Be sure to include the hashtag #KaijuProject with all submissions. The deadline for submission is June 30. Once we've selected the final designs, 12 lucky students will be hand-picked to assist in the Kaiju builds from start to finish, learning pattern-making, foam carving, mechanization, and everything else they'll need to know to transform a 2D concept design into a walking, wearable giant monster suit. And all MAX attendees will get to see these amazing Kaiju monsters in person. Don’t miss out - register for MAX today! From the folks from Godzilla: Heritage
Alrighty guys. The crew will be attending Denver Comic Con June 13-15th and the gracious folks over there have been nice enough to give us a panel to discuss "Godzilla: Heritage". It will also be the unveiling of the completed HeritageGoji suit! If you happen to be going to the Con, we hope to see you there! For those of you who can't attend, later that night Rashaad, Tim and Greg will be holding a Q&A session on Google Hangouts so you can ask us your questions there. We'll also be launching the project's Kickstarter campaign at the Con and we've got some awesome prizes in store for donors, so we hope you'll help us make this a reality! After that, we'll be at G-Fest XXI July 11-13th. The HeritageGoji suit will be on hand there as well and Rashaad will be in the art room this year giving presentations on suit building. You'll be able to stop buy, ask questions and watch him work on the Anguirus suit for the film. Dates and times for the Denver panel and the Google Hangouts Q&A will follow shortly. We'll also have pictures and video. Last but not least, another big thank you to Heritage's fantastic graphics designer and creature concept artist Elden Ardiente - the man behind the monsters! Check out his new posters for the film and Denver below as well as the banner up top. Stay tuned for more of his creature designs in the future! |
