Set Design - 3D, Computer Models, Computer Renderings, Pre-Vis for Motion Picture, Television, Theme Park - Kenneth A. Larson
| Most of my first two decades in the entertainment industry were spent designing and building models. I've built models for Visual Effects, Theme Parks, Architecture, Aerospace, study, and display. Since 1996 I have worked exclusively as a Set Designer and while mostly doing 2D CAD, I have done many 3D CAD and computer modeling. |
| Note: These images are presented here for portfolio purposes only. These images are not available for sale or to be given away in hard copy or digitally in any scale. I will be happy to show hard-copy during a legitimate job interview for Set Designer. |
This page in development.
| Over the next few weeks I hope to gather together the hundreds of computer models I've made for various reasons and clients, using AutoCAD, Virtus Walk-Through/ConceptCAD, VectorWorks, Rhino, and Sketchup, into an organized presentation. Until then, you can slog through the old web site at kesigndesign.com. |

 This simple rendering was made to show Building and Safety what I was trying to built. It is supposed to be a 7/8 scale miniature mill that would have been my art studio. Building and Safety wouldn't let me build it that size and it couldn't be near the water, so I dropped the project. AutoCAD ® 2004. 2008. | Another project soon. |
