Projection Designer

This show was in partnership with the Space Telescope Science Institute, and the projections were almost all photographs from the recently launched James Webb Space Telescope. In addition, I used assets from the NASA Scientific Visualization Studio to create extremely topographically accurate images of the Moon based on high resolution heightmaps created by the US Geological Survey (whose job apparently also involves surveying the Moon via satellite). This show also marks the debut of a Diffusion-based AI technique I've now used in a few shows for transitions (the images in place during the scenes were 100% authentic JWST images). The effect can be seen in the video below.
