Evan Raditya Pratomo x Ghost In The Shell ▲ part 1
Several days ago, Paramount Pictures team allowed me to share one of two images I made for the upcoming @ghostintheshell movie to be released on the 31st of March, 2017.
May 2016 was the month when Paramount Pictures invited me to be involved in the “Ghost In The Shell” (GITS) project, and conjointly welcomed several other artists from different countries around the world to assemble together in Wellington, New Zealand.
They wowed us with the chance they gave us to observe the shooting of some scenes, meet with the production team, take a look at GITS concept arts and props like Geisha’s head, guns, and vehicles. Finally, on the last day, they took us to Weta Workshop.
Like the two ends of a magnet, so are Major and Batou from Section 9. They are the two main characters with the strongest bond in the GITS realm. In fact, there are several interesting reasons and outlooks on life from GITS perspective that impelled me to decide to coalesce the element of water into both of my pieces and name this opus “Ghostdive”.
The first doodle in my sketchbook while I was present at the filming location in Wellington, immediately became the idea behind this piece. One thing that crossed my mind at that point was, “I should make it like a cutting edge movie poster with the impression of being a manga cover.”
