Dark Ride Scripts

Reza Ghobady | May 13, 2008

Our whole concept design process for Aladdin and Alice in Wonderland was based on the original stories. Our screenwriter, Arman Aryan, did extensive research on the history and origin of these two great stories, particularly Aladdin and the Magic Lantern because of its being rooted in our history and its proximity to our culture, in order to find the best original material for the two scripts. For Alice this wasn’t a problem since Lewis Caroll’s book has been published in the past century but with Aladdin he had to go through several versions, including animations, books and movies to be able to find the version that would be nearest the original story.

Theme Ride Concepts

Reza Ghobady | May 12, 2008
Dark Ride Concepts
Aladdin Concept Alice Concept

In our latest project we were asked by Avijeh Mehr Architectural Consultants to create concepts for an amusement park they are constructing. We were charged with two of the theme rides, Alice in Wonderland and Aladdin and the Magic Lantern.

Our team consisted of Arman Aryan as scriptwriter, Ali Chenari as Art Director, Vishka Assayesh as Set Designer, Faraz Shanyar as lead concept artist on Aladdin, Hamed Kamali as lead concept artist on Alice and myself, Reza Ghobady as Production Manager.

We were entrusted with task of creating a complete package which would define the preliminary design, layout, characters and concepts for the two dark rides.

In the following posts I will give you extra details about these two projects and the concept designs the team created for Avijeh Mehr.

Pipe Smoke Simulation

Adib Souly | May 8, 2008

In this short post I am going to talk about how we used and integrated built-in XSI particle system to make smoke simulation for our pipe smoker character in Vishka Studio’s current short animated movie Baran.

Please notice that I’m not going to talk about dynamics here, I just want to talk about the look of smoke simulation here.

Earth, Wind and Fire?!?!

Reza Ghobady | April 4, 2008

SQ01_SH02_comp.jpg

When this project started out we knew that based on the story we had we would have to create a few effects but the further we went into the production, the more we came across scenes that needed some kind of simulation. The first obvious ones, not surprisingly, were the rain effects (the movie IS called “Rain”!) but even these were not as obvious as we initially thought. Read the rest of this entry »

Field of flowers problem

Reza Ghobady | April 3, 2008

We are currently working on a scene which will contains a large field of flowers and vegetation. Currently our effects expert, Adib Souly is working and testing different scenarios in Softimage XSI. You can see a simple concept we did (this was done in a rush by Faraz Shanyar) that was done to help us envision the density and distribution of the vegetation we would need.

But the problem was much thornier than we expected …
