Planetary UI Mockup

The Adler Planetarium

Tests involved in concept mockups for solar system planetarium show, showing possible rough designs for 3D labels highlighting planetary details from orbit. Quick and varied samples of labels were required for use in pitch meetings/screening processes to determine final design direction for show segments.

Planetary [Mars] Image Repair

The Adler Planetarium

Partial coverage, high resolution maps required to complete solar system assets for the purposes of materials and lighting.

Maps provided by NASA and JPL were compiled and edited in Photoshop from corrupted or fragmented satellite images for the purpose of preparing high-resolution materials and texture skins for celestial bodies, as depicted below.
