Description

A cinematic visualization of WASP-12b, an exoplanet locked in a destructive orbit around its star. This project explores the planet’s extreme conditions—its scorching 4,000°F surface, rapid 24-hour orbit, and the gradual loss of its atmosphere due to tidal disruption. The final animation was created in Cinema 4D, with an initial concept draft designed in Photoshop and early motion tests in After Effects. Through a mix of dramatic lighting, atmospheric effects, and dynamic camera movements, the piece captures the intensity of a planet slowly being consumed by its own star.
