Atoms and planets

With the main concept and background of the animation sorted, I began working on the two main themes, the planets and the atoms.



This time, I kept the planet fairly simple as I felt the contrast between an abstract shape and a high resolute realistic planet would be too severe. I also took the colour out so that it fitted with the peice.



I created the atom as a precomp which i then used at various points in the animation. I also inverted it to black on a few occasions to play on the white background at the beginning.
