игра inner the world

A still from Mareike's interactive game project, Inner World

We started brainstorming ideas and experimented with mixing different topics and ended up with the ‘the biblical story of creation’ and the audio and visual appearance of an 8-bit video game.

I worked with my workshop partner Daniel Brenner on an idea. Our starting point was: 1. Let’s do something we always wanted to do. 2. Let’s mix things that don’t fit. And at least: 3. Let’s tell a story.

The idea of Supernatural Creator 2 came during a 4-day workshop at the Baden-Wuerttemberg Film Academy. It was a workshop supervised by Prof. Heike Sperling and Prof. Matthias Raue. The aim was to connect the departments Film Music and Motion Design.

How did the idea for Supernatural Creator 2 come about? What inspired the retro gaming approach?

I was born in Lemgo, Germany where I studied media production with focus on design. After graduating from my BA I decided to continue studying ‘Motion Design’ at the Baden-WГrttemberg Film Academy. Currently I’m living in London and working as an Illustrator and Motion Designer while continuing with my diploma. I love working with my hands and my heart, and I try to give projects a personal touch and a unique feeling.

History of creation reloaded! It’s a short idea about how genesis could have happened if good ol’ Mr. God hadn’t been so tolerant with the very curious human species. 7 days вІ 7 levels! It starts with the creation of light, the firmament, the earth and the sea. On first impression, it seems that that story is very similar to the holy bible, except that God makes the stars & asterisks with a spaceship. But by the end it’s another story altogether…

The YDA blog is back after its summer vacation. And what better way to kick of the new term than with a thoroughly awesome and talented filmmaker? Motion design student, , caught our eye with a film that combines Genesis with retro 8-bit gaming in a way we never thought possible. As well as creating awesome animations, Mareike is also working on several interactive projects which we thought was pretty cool too.
