Major: Kinetic Imaging
Genre/Medium: 3D VR animation
About the work: “Psyche Journey” follows the Psyche satellite around the Psyche asteroid. This piece is a 3D animation in 360 degrees. This unique style is meant to immerse the viewer into the created environment. The viewer experiences different lights and shadows, as well as different views of the environment as they circle around the asteroid.
Major: Kinetic Imaging
Genre/Medium: stop motion (clay, foam, fabric, wire, wool)
About the work: This stop motion piece was created by using a handmade puppet and a clay model of the Psyche asteroid. In the short animation, the Greek goddess Psyche is seen holding and contemplating the Psyche asteroid while it rotates to reveal its metallic surface.
Major: Kinetic Imaging
Genre/Medium: digital drawing
About the work: We don’t know exactly what (16) Psyche looks like because we haven’t been there yet, but thanks to technology and artistic creativity, we are able to have an artistic representation of what it might look like. This animation is a timelapse of my own reconstruction of the original photograph of Psyche.

Genre/Medium: digital animation
About the work: This animation features a few animated facts about the Psyche asteroid, along with some details about the Psyche Mission. I used an estimate of 870 individual triangles to make this animation. I wanted to make something that was visually simple, yet informative and fun to watch.
