Set Design for the exciting sequel Megan 2. I was involved in the apartment architecture, which was built as a flat pack kit off site and then assembled on the sound stage. This included a complex kitchen with special effects elements.
Also I designed the curved dome bunker to look like an underground cavern. This involved curved plywood structures.
Then there was the Faraday cage, which was an intricate conical shape of tapered girders.
Finally, there was a ‘super-computer’ with lots of lighting components and cables. This was a very complex Set with lots of CNC parts, and made in complete modules before assembly at height.
