Across the Universe
This was created for the DiNusty Empire Solar Punk challenge, though it was mostly an excuse to explore a style that I typically don't get to and have fun with shaders. Video compression makes me sad, and so I humbly plead for you to watch in full screen which helps tremendously.
----------
With the exception of the robot's actual flight path all movement in the scene is driven through World Position Offset in the shader, such as the cat's tail, the caterpillar, the robot's wobbles, and the strawberries getting harvested.
ArtStation compression is extremely aggressive, please watch in full screen if you can!

Process of making the scene. Around halfway through I decided to change the style completely and pursue cel shading, outlines and a more paper cutout look.
Breakdown of the post-process layers applied to the scene: Cel shading for flat colours, then outlines and a paper texture overlay to make the scene look more hand-drawn.
