Virgin Atlantic Still Life Set Design
September 6, 2011Photographer : Luke Kirwan, Art Director : Mary Lees, Set Designer : Petra Storrs, Set Design Assistant : Tash Dean
It took a lot of PVA glue and hell of a lot of glitter but in the end the Virgin shots came out great. Luke Kirwan took some lovely shots of out glitter city scape for the in-flight Virgin Atlantic magazine, winging its way to your seat pocket the next time you fly Virgin.

- we where given an open breif so our initial idea was to create the view from an areoplane window
-
- using glitter to recreate the sparkeling lights of a city
-
- I love these Anish Kapoor Sulptures covered in powder
-
- I also wanted to have the buildings emerginf from the clouds
-
- more views from the areoplane window…
-
- Testing out our powder paint and glitter colours
-
- testing gliter shapes
-
- creating the wooden structure of the city scape
-
- and deciding on the product placement within the shot
-
- we chose this light silvery blue in a thin glitter texture
-
- everything had to be covered in two coats of pva and glitter
