Client: WDI
Art Director: Tom Morris
Project Date: Summer 1997-98
During the 90's I bounced around from company to company doing Theme Park Design. It was a busy time then as it was called "The Theme Park Wars" as every studio was expanding and Universal and Disney were one-upping each other all over the globe, so it was good time to be a show designer.
These sketches represent a concept for a themed E-Ticket high dollar attraction that would go into the Adventureland area in the Paris park next to Indiana Jone. We went with a tree people motif and I designed various temples of rock and wood and icons to represent this huge attraction which basically covered a roller coaster. The project was scrapped as Mr Eisner did not want "An Iron Ride in His Park".
