The Brief: create a video to chronicle the life of a prominent designer

Upon picking names out of a hat, I selected Post Modernist designer Ettore Sottsass. I had not previously heard the name, however was informed that his most prominent work was with the Memphis group. 

 

I have never been a huge fan of the Memphis style, seeing it as a bit pretentious. Nevertheless, I dove right into research with an open mind!

 

The general work flow:

  1. create a project plan
  2. research Sottsass' life, works, and design beliefs
  3. create a video plan as I go, whenever inspiration comes to mind during research
  4. create video slides in the style of Sottsass' work
  5. create and edit the video

The Result:
