PLEASE THINK OF THE NARWHALS (2024)
In this It's My Shout Awards Best Film Winner , Harry can't fathom how the world around him operates. After his recycling efforts are dismissed, he embarks on a quest with his classmates to save the planet - and the narwhals.
This was an It's My Shout production from the 2024 season. I worked as an art department trainee under Production Designer Alison Adams and worked a spart of a large art department to build 4 Wes Anderson inspired sets, as well helping to make props and dressing for both the studio and on location.

MAKING OF
Photographs of the protest signs being made - we wanted them each to have their own unique font and style, but be visually linked by blue accents and the repeating mottos 'RECYCLE YOU' and GET GOVERNMENT OUT OF MY BIN"
For the wooden panelling in Edith's office, we covered foam board in wood patterned sticky back vinyl. We then stuck the boards onto the wall to play into the 70s aesthetic of the Wes Anderson films that influenced the set design.
