What is Tableau
For the first collaborative term in Central, we were tasked to recreate a reference still from a film and recreate it as perfectly as we could. we were given this ornate golden frame as seen at the back of the reference image.
The hard parts of this project was working with the low quality reference image and making educated decisions of what the details would have looked like historically. This led us to do a lot of research on the time and typical construction of the time. Alongside @naomifeldprops, we managed to reproduce the frame to a high quality as seen in the following photos
Our Reference Photo
Taken from Pride and Predjudice and Zombies (Steers 2016), this picture first of all didn’t contain any zombies (I know, how boring.). Each course had to recreate the image to the best of their ability. The other members of my course mainly focued on the foods and desserts on the table.
Our Version
This was the final product after a terms work. I am so incredibly happy with how the frame came out for the final exhibition! A culmination of carpentry, scuplting, 3D printing and lots of painting made us proud to finish the project.
