After speaking to Alan I have decided to focus on Brighton's West Pier because it has an atmosphere which I believe I will able to capture significantly so you feel as if you are in the piers heyday. So I have researched about the pier; in general, in construction, the effect on the people and the decline, collapse and fire, alongside pics of the pier.
Evening Gary,
ReplyDeleteYou're probably already aware of this scene from Tim Burton's Sweeney Todd:

Take a look at the art direction - as when you come to give your model of the pier an emotional 'life' - you're going to need to consider the look of your work.
