Video Game Launch Kit – Little Shop of Horrors – Process 4

So I have been working like crazy on an Audrey II. It is a very time-consuming process! Here are some in-progress shots (sorry about the messy surroundings!)

Audrey II Building Him — Green floral foam and cutting out a mouth

Audrey II head — Audrey II with batting and hemp added for veins

Audrey II with skin and teeth — Applied the skin, painted the veins, and added teeth!

Audrey II with leaves — Added some leaves around his neck.

Audrey II with vine arms — I gave him some arms with little saplings! I think he look proud of himself!

Video Game Launch Kit – Little Shop of Horrors – Process 2

So I decided with my video game the characters would be more manga style instead of just straight illustrations.

Here is little Audrey II – Isn’t he cute? In Illustrator I used some puppet warp to get the lettering around the can and to shape the leaves. Cabbage studies helped get the veining on the head and leaves.

Video Game Launch Kit for Graphic Design III

Our assignment was to create a video game launch kit – this would be the package that finally arrives when you pre-order your video game. The only game I have played online is Candy Crush and Solitaire, so not something I have ever waited for. With some research and a lot of YouTube video game unwrapping, I decided to make my own instead of using one that already exists.

I chose Little Shop of Horrors – for some reason, in the years as a Theatrical Prop person, I never had to build or work backstage for this show. Although I do remember NCT performed it & I got to see Audrey II go down Hillsborough Street in a pick-up truck.

I chose to make it a kill or be killed kind of game where Audrey II really did have World Botanical Enterprises take leaf cuttings and they started spreading throughout Skid Row and Manhattan!

Here are my initial sketches.
