Paisagens Sonoras
Paisagens Sonoras is a set of 10 recorded live sessions of portuguese bands and artists, set in various landscapes across Portugal.
“Paisagens Sonoras é um projeto de mostra de música portuguesa nas paisagens exuberantes de Portugal. De norte a sul, da costa ao interior, dos planaltos do Alentejo ao alto da Serra da Estrela, uma viagem sonora interpretada por jovens artistas portugueses que se dão a conhecer a si e aos seus projectos, com pano de fundo um Portugal pronto a ser descoberto por todos”
I was in charge of the identity for the project, which distilled into:
Single illustration to be used as “main identity” for the project
An illustration for each live session
One animated intro
CONCEPT
I took the creative freedom as an opportunity to explore a play-dough/stop-motion style
The process began by creating the main image for the project, which then became the animated intro for the videos.
From there, the challenge was to create ten different and cohesive illustrations for each live session, using and exploring elements from the main image, this time taking the concept of the project more directly and focusing on landscapes and broader images.
TECHNIQUE
The main technical aspect of the production was the look development.
Achieving the play-dough and wooden look of the pieces was attained through a mix of noises and gradients (some animated) for the color, displacement and reflection of the object, with a final layer of a bump map of fingerprints for the play-dough specifically.
