HOUSE HARKONNEN: GIEDI PRIME

This short CGI film presents a cinematic interpretation of Giedi Prime, the industrial and oppressive homeworld of House Harkonnen, one of the central forces in Frank Herbert’s Dune saga. The film draws inspiration from Herbert’s detailed descriptions in the original novels, bringing to life the planet's bleak atmosphere, brutalist architecture, and environmental decay. Designed as a solo passion project, every aspect from animation to lighting, scene composition, and environmental design was executed by me, using assets I sourced and modified to construct the world as I envisioned it. Music used in the film is licensed and not original.
