This page is mostly just character design. "Character Design" was a bit too big to fit in the menu.
Sistema Solar is a Spanish educational music video I worked on when I was with Mundo Lanugo. As you can imagine, the video taught kids about the different planets in the solar system. I animated part of it and created the designs for the planets.
I followed Mundo Lanugo's vision. The song in this video was a rap song so they wanted the planets to have a "gangster" vibe. That is, as "gangster" as a pre-school video can be.
I was given a general theme for each planet and I explored the ideas in my notebook. They would pick what they liked from my sketches and then I would put it together. I included the sketches below.
 Mercury was the first planet I worked on so I tried out different ways to draw the planets here. Mercury was a "Runner" because it's the fastest planet. |  Saturn's theme was that it had "bling". |
|---|---|
 Uranus's theme was laziness because the planet rotates on a horizontal axis. |  Venus's theme was femininity because of it being named after a Goddess of Love. Venus was also the "singer". |
 Jupiter was meant to be "mobster" like. |  Neptune was cool and distant since it's the planet farthest away from the Sun. |
 Earth's thing was to have the land be tattoos and Mars' volcano (biggest in the solar system) was meant to be like a pimple. |  I tried to design's Earth's tattoos based off of the cultures of each continent. |
 Juptier's cigar was cut out later on (the cigar was not my idea). |
