Concepts - Disney 100 Idents
Great to have approval to show these and amazing to find out that ILM has won a Gold Clio Award for our work on the 100 years of Disney Castle Ident. My role was only a small one in creating the concept art for the look of the castle and surrounding environment, but it was a pleasure to be part of the creative team. Congratulations to ILM Senior Visual Effects Supervisor David Vickery , ILM Visual Effects Associate Supervisor Jan Maroske and the super talented team at Disney, Industrial Light & Magic and Lucasfilm
Concept showing look and lighting for the castle - as well as the river and surrounding land (with recognisable physical features such as Pride Rock from The Lion King
The main aim was to make the environment magical (so darker in areas with floating lanterns and will O wisp blue floating lights), but positive and rich colours from the skies.
As it looks in the Ident
The full Ident - I also started working on some of the other parts of the sequence, but ended up on another show, so these were never fully realised beyond quick sketches
