On board Aether, the crew has an interactive solar system chart, invented entirely by One of Us. The team started building it after the live action shoot of the scenes, allowing the performances of the actors and the script plot points to drive all of the design work for the sequence.

“I have always loved the creative style One Of Us brings to its work, so I knew I had to get them on board from the beginning. They were huge creative collaborators and Oli and his team produced one of George’s favourite sequences – the living memory holograms.”
