USNC approached Deep Sky to produce a series of videos that promote and explain their state-of-the-art technology, which is setting the new standard for nuclear safety. From breaking through the stigma of nuclear energy to providing real information about the benefits of it as well, we knew we had a great opportunity in front of us.
We created full 3D environments for their reactors, including the underground parts of the reactor, the above-ground facilities, the communities they power, and their surrounding environment. Through a partial isometric animation style, we showed the functions of these facilities from fluid and gas simulations to how they react in the event of catastrophes like floods.

The most important shots were safety-related, conveying the precautions that prevent environmental catastrophe by emphasizing the way reactor heat dissipates into the ground and the safe storage of used reactors. A simulation to demonstrate the MMR's ability to withstand natural disasters required us to simultaneously show both above- and below-ground facilities. Because its particular details make water so difficult to simulate—namely, the tiny size of fluid particles—our team rendered a destructive tidal wave that would adequately show the facility's capabilities.
In ‘A New Standard’, we created an entire town large enough for a population of 5,000 people as a 3D environment in order to demonstrate the capability of the MMR reactor. Building a complete environment is always challenging, particularly when scientific accuracy and adaptability is so important, so that it can react naturally to a fluid simulation. We constructed the environment around the established camera movements, depending on whether the shot required a 3/4 angle, wide-angle zoom-out, or a close zoom-in for a fly-through shot.
The main goal of these videos was to be informative and scientifically-accurate. Using detailed environment modeling, complex VFX, and hyper-realistic simulations, we were able to convey USNC's priority of safety while highlighting their state-of-the-art technology.
USNC approached us about producing a series of videos to promote the state-of-the-art technology for their Micro Modular Reactor's Life Cycle. This video demonstrates how nuclear energy is a safe, environmentally-responsible solution to the problems of climate change through realistic 3D visualizations of their facilities and the communities they serve.
This timelapse video show a hyper-realistic environment over a 24-hour period, and displays how an MMR Ultra Farm provides wind and solar assets to minimize electricity cost while meeting 100% of demand.

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
