For Project Vulcan, I aimed to design the computer interface to align seamlessly with the technology depicted in Alien (1979) and Alien: Romulus. Drawing direct inspiration from the Nostromo’s computers, I wanted the system to feel as though it existed within the same timeline as these films. Each screen was meticulously designed in Illustrator before being animated in After Effects, with careful attention given to replicating the character, motion, and sounds of the original source material. The interface itself plays a narrative role—if observed closely, the screens reveal Rhett’s search for answers after being prematurely awakened from cryo-sleep. In the original story, he discovers that he is trapped aboard the Vulcan, with the alien as the only other crew member to have been revived. To enhance authenticity, I introduced visual artefacts by playing back the animations and sound effects through a CRT monitor. This process added the distinctive texture, distortion, and atmosphere that define the retro-futuristic aesthetic of the Alien universe.

My dad and I had the adventure of a lifetime and took motorcycles around Tasmania. An experience that I will never forget, here is but a small glimpse into what we saw across the rugged landscape of the state. Music - Public Image Ltd - Seattle Starring - Alexander Clemente & Michael Clemente

Project Vulcan is the culmination of my skills as an Industrial Designer aiming to bridge my career into the film industry. The short film is the end product of my Industrial Design Honours project Cinematic Design Odyssey: Dissecting a Future in Film & Design. In this project I analysed and broke down the skills involved in working within the film industry. Undertaking comprehensive historical analysis of Design and Film, conducting expert interviews with people in the Australian film space and imparting my own experiences with working in the industry, led me down a path of exploring how I can bring my skills as an industrial designer together, creating a detailed and high quality short film that encompasses many processes, techniques and ability to work in many roles and under a tight timeframe. Everything you see in this film was designed, prototyped, constructed, filmed, and edited by me. - Alexander Clemente In this video you can watch my full presentation for my honours project, learning about how the project got to where it is and how it has allowed me to grow as a designer stepping into the next chapter of my career.

Inspired by #adamsavage and his workshop apron he created on #tested I wanted to make my own custom fit apron to keep all my essential tools at arms reach. Here you see me sewing the front pockets on, shaping each section for its specific need. #handmade #handsewn #sewing #leatherwork #workshop #tools
