Final Idea of Physical Set

Long Shot

Band Area


This is my design of the TV program "Int Min Int" physical set. My concept originated from the program itself - subjects, guests, art, culture, maltese designers and artists and music. I wanted to create a set that highlights these characteristics and attract youths to this program as it has a very intersting context. The forms of the set were an inspiration from Maltese culture. I was inspired by the fact that Malta is an island and reflected this feature in the design of the platforms which resemble two islands.I highlighted this contrast by using LED rope light around the border of the platforms. The set is divided into 2 areas making the set look bigger and with a specific area designed for each part of the program. The Chat Area is used to interview the guests and has a welcoming atmosphere with the use of warm colours to make the guests feel comfortable and also invite the viewer into the conversation. On the other hand the Band Area has a different atmosphere which resembles the nightclub atmosphere. I wanted this dark, blueish mood to compliment the music. The forms in the set were influenced from the "bajtar" - but transformed into abstract geomatrical forms with the same random movement . With these forms I designed flats which create the atmosphere in the set through light passing through the thin cotton fabric. Geometrical patterns are sown into the cotton to create different shadows and light intesities.
