My Role: Motion designer

I worked within a team of animators commissioned by Lightroom and 59 Studios, for the European rollout of the Apple natural history series Prehistoric Planet.

Adapted from its original four-screen IMAX format at Lightroom’s King’s Cross venue, the work was reconfigured for immersive spaces across Europe. Each venue brought its own architectural constraints, such as different proportions and number of walls, screen setups, and sight lines. With limited on-site access, the team developed a VR-led review process led by J.T. Child, building accurate 3D models of each space to virtually test and refine the work before export.
