All major studios in the UK are expanding, and there aren't enough people with the skills to meet the demand.
Now, he’s moved from analog drafting to drawing everything with SketchUp’s 3D modeling software. He originally drafted scenes by hand on large drawing boards. Technology prevalent in the architecture, engineering, and construction industries has been adapted over the years to build movie sets, making Luke’s workflow much more manageable. Not surprisingly, there’s quite a bit of overlap in both set production and architecture approaches. He needs the right tools to be effective: iPad and desktop modeling, pre-built sci-fi components, 2D documentation, and 3D printing. In his workflow, Luke moves from existing spaces into conceptual 3D modeling and back to the real world. Luke combines unique tools like iPad and sci-fi kitbashing to streamline his workflow and spark unusual geometric combinations for his craft. Much consideration goes into producing the sets for these visual masterpieces. He’s best known for his work on Avengers: Infinity War and Inception - movies that film school students will study for years to come. If you’ve watched any Disney, Marvel, or Warner Bros movies, you’ve probably seen Luke Whitelock’s set design skills in action.
Renowned UK-based art director Luke Whitelock shares how workflows typically employed by architects help him create movie sets for some of the biggest studios in the film industry.
