In terms of scene shop, it was new for me because I had never spent such a concentrated amount of time in that aspect of production or worked on projects on such a…

breathlessly frozen to the spot. It was called the Hubble Ultra Deep Field. It’s hundreds of scattered light blobs appeared drab at first glance because the wispy spirals or vivid colors one would expect when viewing a galaxy were no where to be found.
