Gemini Missions

Project Overview
In 2012 NASA released a catalogue of amazing high-res photographs taken by astronauts during the Gemini missions. The missions ran 10 manned orbital flights between 1965-66. The combination of faded light, outdated colouring and lens aberrations capture the magic and wonder of space flight from a bygone era. I put together this video montage using a combination of optical flares, parallax techniques and puppet tool manipulation to create a space-like ‘floaty’ movement.
