Re-Interpretation

    A couple weeks ago I was meeting with a friend of mine (who has a growing photography business) to talk about doing some design work for her. She was showing me some stuff that she likes, which helped give me an idea of what she likes, her style sense, and the kinds of things she takes in as visual inspiration. Clearly, this isn't about taking these things and duplicating them exactly but rather filtering them all through and taking them as an inspiration to take off from. She shared with me how a lot of times people will bring with them pictures they have found and say "I want this," and she was curious as to how I deal with that kind of a request. I thought this spurred an interesting conversation on "Originality."

    We all want to be the first, the trend setter, the trail blazer, and I think we can be, but I also think that whether directly or indirectly we are inspired by everything around us. Taking things in all the time, even when we may be unaware of it. So, when it comes to people seeking out inspiration for a project I don't think it makes them any less creative. The creativity comes in re-interpretation. So, if someone was to come to me and say I want this exact thing duplicated, my job as a creative problem solver isn't to march of and do it. My job is to "listen" to what they are really saying and ask the "right" questions, to figure out what it is they really want. For example someone brings you an image with a lot of polka-dots and says, "I want this." Instead of giving them exactly that, maybe what their saying is that they want a youthful or playful look or they want to incorporate a lot of color. Dig deeper and find the creativity to re-interpret.

    As creatives maybe there are those ideas that come out of thin air, but honestly I think it all stems from something. An inventory of you life (the things you've seen, heard, touched, smelled, and tasted) being pulled from whether conscious or not.

    So, here is a commercial for the Samsung 3D LED TV that I absolutely love and continue to watch over and over. When I saw this for the first time I immediately thought of all those 3D chalk drawing I've seen posted on the web over the year. Makes me wonder how direct the reference was supposed to be or really is. When I see these kinds of great commercials I just wish I could have been in all those meetings from inception to completion to hear the train of thought these people had.

A New Way of Looking at SNOW WHITE

    I have recently had some intriguing correspondence with a young artist named Patrik Spacek. Originally from the Czech Republic, he has lived in Illinois for the last three years.

    A few days ago he wrote me, asking if I'd suggest a Disney background I'd like to see rendered in 3D computer graphics.

    After thinking about it for a day, I suggested the interior of the dwarfs' cottage from SNOW WHITE.

    When the graphics arrived in my email, I was absolutely floored.

    This young man is a brilliant talent. The computer graphics he's created are nothing short of astonishing. SENSATIONAL!

    Here are two shots of the cottage re-created in CGI 3D - the bedroom staircase and the entire interior pan shot of the cottage. I have included a close-up of the area under the stairs.

    Look at the incredible detail - the curves on the staircase's wooden planks, the texture of the wall's stucco, etc.

    This young man spent days creating this, and it took 20 hours to completely render.

    ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!

    Patrik, thank you for sharing your work with our blog readers. I think you have an amazing future ahead of you.

    Patrik's goal is to work for Disney (ideally) and/or another major animation studio. Someone should sign this young man immediately.

    (Readers - be sure and click on the images. They will open in a new window full size so you can really savor the incredible detail.)
