Last week, we bought you the exclusive Daydream Dynamic Theme from Studio Output's very own designer extraordinaire Lucy 'Gibbo' Gibson. This week she shares with us a bit about what makes her tick...
Describe your theme in 5 words...
Describe your theme in 5 words...
A visual playground, on glue.
From where do you draw your inspiration?
1960's - 70's magazines. Old books.
Why did you choose to showcase your work in partnership with a global brand like PlayStation?
A great opportunity, I think anyone would be silly not take advantage of this! I normally work in flat collage so it's a nice advance to see it come to life.
What’s it like seeing your work fully digitised on The Studio?
Lovely!
How did you adapt your work – in terms of both the feel of The Studio space and the physical parameters of PlayStation’s XrossMediaBar (XMB)?
It was interesting to design a piece which would work continuously with elements moving, instead of designing a static piece. Balance and refinement was needed, especially as I have a tendency to overload a static design!
The worlds of gaming and art have grown closer and closer over the years – how do you think they fit together and how do you see the relationship progressing?
As the relationship is growing raptly it is allowing the once thought far off level of detail in the designs possible.
If you could have created any video game throughout history, what would it be?
Lemmings!
If you could turn a PlayStation into a piece of art/design, what would you do with it?
A rucksack.
What’s your favourite video game?
Sonic the Hedgehog on the Megadrive! Classic.
