In the animated film Moana, Maui is a demigod who wears a magical necklace that grants him the power to shapeshift. The necklace is a key part of the film's story, and it was important for the filmmakers to create a design that was both visually appealing and authentic to Polynesian culture.
The necklace was designed by Bill Schwab, who is a visual development artist at Walt Disney Animation Studios. Schwab drew inspiration from traditional Polynesian jewelry, as well as from the film's overall design aesthetic. He wanted the necklace to be visually striking, but also to have a sense of weight and history.
The necklace is made of a variety of materials, including wood, bone, and feathers. The centerpiece of the necklace is a large, greenstone pendant. The pendant is carved with a traditional Polynesian design, and it is said to contain the power of the ocean. The necklace also features a number of smaller pendants, which are made of a variety of materials, including bone, feathers, and shells.
The necklace is a powerful symbol of Maui's strength and power. It is also a beautiful piece of jewelry that is sure to be treasured by fans of the film. You can learn more about the making of Maui's necklace in the video clip below.
