‘The Octagon’, what a cleverly named nickname, evoking the atmosphere of a gladiatorial arena. My idea was to make the scene the ultimate battleground, providing a compelling stage for the showdown between the protagonist and the villain. By designing it as a well shaped scene with an epic feel, I managed to create a huge and macroscopic atmosphere that enhances the visual impact of the whole story.
My idea depicted the octagonal cage as a well-like scene with the sky and desert floor overhead, injecting a sense of openness to the whole scene. The addition of a huge fan and broken down digger adds to the abandoned feel of the scene and conveys a wealth of information to the viewer. This detailing not only adds to the story, but also deepens the audience’s understanding of the scene.
The final fight scene needed to leave a deep impression on the audience, and my design incorporated strong elements of visual conflict, organically blending the elements of abandonment, disrepair, and desert. This scene design is not only for visual effect, but also to convey the climax of the story’s emotion and conflict through the images.
By making full use of the scenic elements, I succeeded in creating a dramatic and epic place for the viewer, providing a compelling backdrop for the final showdown.
