Process

Solograms
Early on in the film’s development, I met with director Rupert Sanders to discuss creative direction. He expressed his desire to paint the city with neon lit solid holograms, which he named “Solograms.” It is found in the realm of a particle system of light that can be moved and augmented in Z-space.
"Man is an individual only
because of his intangible memory."
Since I was a child,
I dreamed of traveling
to other planets.
"Just a whisper.
I hear it in my ghost."
Epoch is a chance for me
to connect with my childhood dream
of becoming and astronaut.
"I am a living,
thinking entity that was
created in the sea of information."
"Overspecialize, and you breed in
weakness. It's a slow death."
