"Rose Fire Nebula"
This animation depicts an imaginary nebula existing somewhere within our grand cosmos. The viewer is taken through the luminous stardust clouds in this immersive animation which was created utilizing fluid dynamics simulations with density-based color gradients. It was definitely a challenge to try and depict seemingly infinite scene, and figure out how it would look like "inside" a nebula. A lot of fun experimenting and trying to get the looks correct! No AI was used in this project. Rather bombastic soundtrack was chosen to hopefully inspire feelings of discovery and wonderment. Hope you enjoy viewing it!
