Backgrounds for the planetarium.
I worked with Rumblebox on Pacific Standard Universe for Griffith Observatory from June 2023 to September 2024. I joined just after the script was finalized, when each sequence still needed its own look.
I started with quick color and style tests, then made layered, high-resolution backgrounds for animation in After Effects.
Some shots use 2D layers and parallax. Others use Blender camera work and CG, depending on what the shot needed.

Color and composition studies.
I made quick paintings so we could try the color, composition, and style of each sequence before I started the final backgrounds.
