Who would not want to create an animated video about a space debris robot!? Interstellar Space Systems is a new space startup company who’s mission is to remove the debris in low earth orbit clearing the way for further space installations and exploration. We helped visualize the robot and placed it in context. The Space Debris Droid as well as the space landscapes were all developed in 3D.

Our client came to us with a need to render the Debris Droid in a real and compelling way. With some preliminary drawings, and a general direction on what the Droid could do, we developed the structure and attachments in 3D. The end result works as an excellent visual portrayal for the potential investor or collaborator.

The droid and its environments were all fully built out in 3D animation. We created a low earth orbit, a Mars landscape, and an asteroid field to show how the droid works. We worked diligently on the atmospheric quality of space. Using lighting and subtle particle effects, the space around the droid feels substantial. The animation takes the viewer through the movement and workings of the droid’s behavior and function.

We visualized the potential of the droid as it collects large and small debris then burns up in the earth’s atmosphere. We loved working on this project, and we are one step closer to a cleaner low earth orbit.
