Sci-Fi Cityscapes #4: The Fifth Element (1997); circa the 23rd Century
I have always loved the imagination captured in science-fiction production designs from the cityscapes created[CG, matte, miniatures] to the sets built to the costumes and props. It is truly art.

I had the immense good fortune to work on The Fifth Element in my first film job, specifically matte painting. The frame at bottom was one of them.
