Brainstorming For Team A's (stichcastles) Team

[figmntal95]

I missed that too. Not trying to stir anything up but I don't remember saying anything about doing the visuals. I also can't do them on this short notice as I have my hands full with work the next couple of days.

On the first page you said you would provide drawings for the final? :shrug:

But if you're busy, I'm sure someone else can do it.

All right, I started messing around Sketchup, which I've never used before and here's about as far as I got today. With a little practice I think this will come in handy moving forward. Ignore the misplaced text in the second photo.

Hope that sorta helps with the submission. I'll be MIA the rest of the day.

Right, i thought I'd throw a coupla things out there, I really think that the structure should be metal, not stone or anything, and I'm not keen on having benches or a meet and great there, i think it makes it seem too friendly as oposed to the story we're trying to hell here.

I'm liking the wording btw, the two word message, i forget what it is, works best IMO

I'll be doing a write up in a couple hours. Again, a list of every detail would be nice. If not, I'm sure I can scrounge it up on my own.

 

[MathewGW]

I think we have so far:

Three poles holding up sign, with supporting beams.

"Junk" around base, Beat up car (my vote stil goes with a top gear easter egg ie Lancia Beta Couple with no dours or bonnet), rusted drums, overgrown grass/plants, perhaps a bit more

Some sort of awning or canope, thatched has been mentioned but I'm not sure that would fit, to keep guests cool and draw them in a little

General idea is to play up the man vs nature aspect, with the billboard and junk contrasting with the lushness of the natural surroundings

I believe the agreed text was "Karibu Harambe - Welcome to Harambe", possible some sort of red and blue design with yellow letters?


Car radio playing tribal music

Cool spot was mentioned, could possibly useing the outdoor air con used in Uiversal Singapore

Tiki - If we use my very basic images above to give the jist of our look, I think your write up can better describe what's there. That way we at least have some images to submit.

 

[figmntal95]

So I spit out like 15 ideas and only 1 gets used? :lol:

I guess that's the Imagineering Business.

I posted this before, but really, I posted a write up on page 6 that you could use.

REMINDER! I need a TEAM NAME Before you post

 

[figmntal95]

Looks like there are some spies from the other team on this thread....:lookaroun

We still don't have a team name?


We should name our team after our first project--- the Billboarders.

 

[MathewGW]

our Team name is Team A isn't it?

Figmental, I kn ow you posted a write up, but it's not reallt detailed enough, and it's a little bit too cheesy for my tastes. We could use a final descision as to what we're including, if you wana bullet point your ideas figmental, in one post to make it easier, it may make it possible to pick through them and possibly include them

It has to be something Disney related.

There's a few ideas floating throughout the thread.

Don't we have to think of a new name?

I can do that.

I can do that.

for reference, FutureImagneer suggested these earlier:
Goofy's Imagineering Troop
Chip 'n Dale's Imagineering Rangers
The Imagineer's of Tomorrow

and I threw out The Incredibles

 

[MathewGW]

I vote for the Chip n Dale name, just because it reminds me of being a kid

 

[figmntal95]

-I had an idea to make the sign look like a giant postcard that said Greetings from Harambe, but I'm now realizing that's a terrible idea.

-The billboard is lit during nighttime by light hidden in rocks beneath it.

-Character meet-n-greets, which was decided not to be done.

-Red, Brown and Yellow Color scheme.

-Mist effect from the car engine, kinda like smoke is coming out of it.

-African tribal music from the car radio, which everyone liked and I think is included in the plans.

-Back side of billboard says "thanks for visiting Harambe"

-Visuals of the architecture and animals.

-Stone supports for the billboard, but I believe metal was decided upon.

 

[figmntal95]

I vote for the Chip n Dale name, just because it reminds me of being a kid

And I'll second that vote.

 

[figmntal95]

One more question, is the billboard double sided?

 

[Tazer19]

And I'll second that vote.

works for me too
