Speaking of his work, Mupasi says: &ldquo;Visually, I try to convey this through scenes and compositions with a lot of color and exaggerated elements &ndash; like large suns, moons, hills, mountains, lush forests, etc. I place and move my characters in those scenes to convey certain feelings and meaning from those moments.&rdquo;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video controls src=\"&lt;iframe%20width=%22727%22%20height=%22409%22%20src=%22https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-JY6sI6APuY%22%20title=%22To%20The%20Moon%22%20frameborder=%220%22%20allow=%22accelerometer;%20autoplay;%20clipboard-write;%20encrypted-media;%20gyroscope;%20picture-in-picture%22%20allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;\/iframe&gt;\"><\/video><figcaption>&ldquo;To The Moon&rdquo;<\/figcaption><\/figure><p>The primary program he uses is Cinema 4D and After Effects.
