Wonders of the universe: Date Night Backgrounds

Date Night Protocol is the first animation that Toonwerks produced after completing work on Stoned Gremlin's 6x11 web animation series Lloyd.
As the studio moved back to short form animations, I created all the backgrounds for this animated short.

Some of the background's elements are never seen within the short, but were added for future use in later episodes.

Apartment Corridor: The spaceship "Wonders of the Universe" is essentially a giant cruise ship in space and I wanted to reflect this with a long corridor of copy-pasted apartments.

Original layout design of the space cruise ship's corridors to crew apartments. I'm fond of this layout that includes a elevator to other areas of the ship.
However this design did not truly reflect the size of the ship and I used an endless corridor.
