Terrorarium: Gardener’s Ship Bridge

The direction for the ship bridge was like a kind old grandmother's home, but set in a UFO.

Despite only being used a handful of times, I designed and placed the teleporter like a microwave. A piece of technology that is very powerful, but also just a regular part of every day life to the characters in the game.

Though the airlock is rarely shown, I designed it with daily use in mind. It functions as the main entryway, by looking like the natural exit it creates a flow to the environment, and makes the room more relatable to players.

The bridge of The Gardener’s ship was used to express her personality, through the visual style of the game. I had a lot of freedom form the team at Stitch Media to build a very unique environment, while focusing on their goals for the character. We put a lot of attention into the look: the colours, and texture where each designed for specific ques in the Gardener’s personality.

With a pre-developed shot list for all game cinematics, I knew the requirements/program of each scenes layout. From the first vertex framing possibilities where core to the design of the environment. Each element has it’s own section of the bridge, using a circular arrangement we could have continuous shots without the need to cut away or risk clipping through the set.
