Type of work: Matte Painting

For this commercial poster, I was tasked with designing and painting a background environment that would evoke the atmospheric essence and visual mood of Pandora from James Cameron's Avatar, while adapting the aesthetic to be more accessible and inviting to a broader audience. The goal was to capture the otherworldly, bioluminescent beauty and lush alien landscape qualities of that fictional world, but with a softer, less intimidating visual approach that would feel more welcoming and commercially appealing rather than purely fantastical or exotic.
