MOONSIDE
Venture into Moonside, a skewed alternate dimension where we take a close look into the friendships of a dreamlike Los Angeles. Moonside is an alternate dimension that exists from the RPG game Earthbound or Mother 2. When entering this dimension, the environment shifts into a neon, two-dimensional world. Space itself transforms into eternal darkness and neon lines glisten and radiate to represent the surrounding environments and atmosphere. The dimension is convoluted, out of place, but a significant part of the protagonists journey. John honors the friendships and moments he shared with his friends before the pandemic, remembering the cultivation of camaraderie. Considering the solitude and isolate feeling of sheltering in place and refraining from our normal human interactions.
