Lunar Lander: Google X-Prize

About 5 years ago I was lucky enough to work on one of the pitches for Google X-Prize Lunar Lander. This is a still frame from one of the animations. It's very crude because I didn't know what I was doing at the time but I had 8 hours to storyboard it, get it approved and then animate the sequence. The good thing about getting thrown into the fire is you learn quickly. It's amazing what urgency will do to your skill set. Unfortunately we didn't get the prize. But the experience was priceless.
