This is probably going to wind up as part of a book I plan to write about the project, techniques, and software.

If you miss the "Lunatics!" art I used to post more often, I post that on my "Lunatics Project" Pixelfed, now (although I do boost them here, still). I decided that was a more appropriate platform. It's all on the Fediverse, still:

Among the tools we use on "Lunatics!", one of the least well-known is #PapagayoNG . The "NG" is for the pure-Python version of the software which was forked and maintained by @morevnaproject . This version was easier to adapt to our needs:

It's an editor that helps to time lipsync animation to dialog.
It's a big time-saver!

Soyuz on the pad, just after sunrise.
Because launch vehicles tend to launch towards the East to take advantage of the Earth's rotation, the Gagarin-Start pad in Kazakhstan does 'face' eastwards, with the support equipment on the west side, which makes this shot work out nicely.
From "Lunatics!" ep.1 "No Children in Space".

The outside of the (fictional 2040-era) train station in Baikonur. Aside from the covered platform, most of this looks like it does today.
Some great hard-surface modeling by Sathish Kumar and Chris Kuhn on this one (and some 'background' set modeling by me).
From "Lunatics!", ep1: "No Children in Space".

Hiromi and Georgiana Lerner, arriving at Baikonur in April, 2040. The train station is a fictional upgrade to the real one.
A lot of "billboard extras" in this shot. Making the on-Earth parts of the story have realistic numbers of people in them was one of the challenges for this pilot.

My main creative work is a #FreeCulture #OpenMovie #Animated #ScienceFiction "series" https://lunatics.tv for which I am still finishing a pilot episode.
I also spend a lot of time on exploring, testing, and promoting #FOSS tools, like #Blender , #Inkscape , #Kdenlive , #Audacity , #Ardour , #PapagayoNG , #ResourceSpace , #Gitea , and #PeerTube .
In the past, I've been an #Astronomer with an interest in #BioAstronomy .
