The Mad Hatter's Hightopp Hat Shoppe was to be seen in three different incarnations as it developed into a more elaborate location with time. I made up several custom shop receipts to reflect this, again using bits and pieces of the indispensable Dover clipart from their printed books and fonts that looked like 19th century handwriting. Family Crests Lastly, I set about the task of designing family crests for the Red Queen, the White Queen and the town of Witzend. These took quite a bit of reworking in order to get the effect Dan was looking for. Early incarnations were deemed too modern. The figures in Iracebeth's crest subtly allude to the organic shapes in her vegetable servants. Of course, the red heart is the shape of her new Outlands home that has grown out of the dirt after the destruction of her castle in the first film. The White Queen's crest uses the black-and-white chess pieces for which she is known. It is more delicate matching her purer character. For the Witzend crest, Dan wanted me to adapt one of the original Alice in Wonderland sketches by John Tenniel of the unicorn and the lion. The unicorn could be used as is but the lion's body had to be redrawn so it was facing the center of the crest. Amazingly, these fabulous illustrations are out of copyright and went through clearance without a hitch. Dover clipart was used for the banner, crest, the initial "W" and the crown. I cannot thank Dan Hennah and Todd Cherniawsky enough for bringing me on this fabulous film. It was a wonderful ride through a little girl's imagination and a stunning opportunity to design things both whimsical, unique and yes, sometimes quite personal. ADG
