Development and design of an
Apple Anniversary Monopoly
To mark the 20th anniversary of the first Apple MacIntosh computer, I designed a board game centred around Apple and Apple products. The board, originally made of aluminium, was modified in the course of 2006. A collapsible version made of hard cardboard with a metal look was designed.
The game was ready for production at the end of 2006.
Together with Lutz Grundhöfer and the agency Artners, a promotional video was created in 2004. Lutz Grundhöfer composed and realised a soundtrack that was produced exclusively with the then brand new Apple program "Garage Band". The animations and video clips were created with the then also new programme "Keynote", which Steve Jobs originally had programmed exclusively for his live presentations.
Keynote is a Power Point alternative for Apple computers.
Instead of streets and houses, everything here revolves around client computers and server locations, at tech universities, film studios (Pixar) and even home offices and garage start-ups.
