INFO
2094. Humanity lives divided. Young impulsive Mars inhabitant ELAINE ZOLA (15) has never felt connected to her orderly Mars community on the faraway planet. When she suddenly finds herself inside a retro virtual reality game and meets KEVIN KORNER (17), a cybercriminal from Earth, they form an unlikely bond that transcends youthful failure and innocent love in order to gain ultimate freedom.Cybercity Lovestory is a transmedia series combining live action TV and a VR-game experience. The pilot was shot in 2022 and is currently in post production. This was a full studio production with more than 8 different sets that were exclusively built for this pilot shoot, including two sets that included a virtual production workflow.

process
I work in 3D Software right from the beginning of the project. In the early process it enables me to make quick concept designs and renderings inside the boundaries of the specific studio/location, while in the later phases I can base my calculations on precise measures, quickly produce plans or provide cad data.
In the following section there are some impressions from the design process.
Big thanks to Arthur Baum and Eddie Schäfer for producing some of the Previs shots!
