here's a little bit of the concept work i did for avatar. these are weapon designs for the RDA security forces on pandora. i really went super nerdy designing these things, and worked out all the little details, like the reloading process (pre-packaged plastic magazines that you tear the top off and load, complete with e-ink ammo counter on the sides. then you twist the top dial to chamber and cock the first round), how the modular pieces form various weapon types (the under barrel grenade launcher on the assault version forms the base of the shotgun/20mm munition launcher) etc etc etc good fun! these versions are the original caseless designs, but the finals in the film had cased munitions, and ejection ports, as jim wanted brass flying. he also asked for the shotgun to be pump action, which was fucking awesome cause pumping the final prop (with norinco 12 gauge pump internals) is a highlight of my time at weta.Harald Belker
The work speaks volumes. Spanning decades, Harald's graphically bold portfolio shows a remarkable range of styles. Never one to repeat the same project, Harald's portfolio runs the gamut from futuristic automotive work to modern sports equipment to furniture, toys and apparel. Harald's draw is what his portfolio doesn't tell you: People want to work with him. He is approachable and professional, possessing a clairvoyant ability to connect with the mind of his clients.About Sparth Sparth (nicolas bouvier) has been an active artistic director and concept designer in the gaming industry since 1996. Born in France, he now lives in Seattle, Washington, working for Microsoft.Having had the privilege of travelling extensively at an early age to such places as far afield as the USA, Singapore, China, France and Europe, he was influenced greatly by the various cultures, and he enjoyed observing people and making notes of all these tiny details of life that he was witnessing. The varied influences are largely responsible for his multiple creative passions, which range from space, to buildings, to robotics and beyond. There are no limits to his creativity when it comes to translating forms and concepts.
