Gifs I created for Pluto.life
This is my own adaptation of Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata." I was inspired by many myths and legends of the Sun and the moon. I pulled images of the Earth and the moon from NASA, but the rest you see here I created in Adobe After Effects. I chose to tell my own love story between the Sun and the moon. They were in love with each other, but their love brought chaos and destruction to Earth. The Sun and the moon decided that their love was not as important as the lives of man, so they take turns rotating around Earth, only to see each other during every sunrise and every sunset.
This was my own adaptation of Greek mythology about how the Earth, Moon and Sun came to be. This tells the love story between the Sun and the Moon. They dance around each other, happily in love and full of light, but they notice how sad, dark and lonely Earth is. They hear the suffering cry of man and decide to sacrifice their love to save the Earth. The Moon and Sun revolve around Earth for the rest of time.
