This is a great astronomy course - an interactive, comprehensive course for high school students and teachers. The course focuses on all current areas of astronomy and astrophysics. Within the 30 lessons, our team has created a variety of materials that allow you to learn complex and varied knowledge. All course materials are available free of charge at astro.cpm77.ru.
Video lessons
The main content of the course is video lessons lasting up to 30 minutes. In them, the presenter explains complex concepts with the help of visual animations created under the guidance of world-renowned scientists.
I worked with the scientific editors and the director to create storyboards and set the technical specifications for the motion designers. I also drew many of the illustrations myself.

Website
All course materials (including video lesson, text, interactive task and video with a question to the expert) are available at astro.cpm77.ru. I developed a prototype of the site, drew all its pages, assembled and filled it with content on the zerocode CMS Bubble.
Astrotexts
The texts are written by experts in astrophysics and provide a deeper dive into a particular topic. I developed a template for these texts, drew hundreds of scientific illustrations, and layouted more than 500 pages of complexly structured text.
Over 500 scientific illustrations in a consistent style I have carefully rendered for this course.
Interactive exercises
The interactive exercises serve as a self-test for students. I have made a design system, logic, prototypes, and screen-by-screen designs for these materials.

Logotype and identity
The logo – the letter A, composed of particles flying at the viewer – was chosen as a symbol of superiority (the first letter of the alphabet). It illustrates the direction of looking up when studying a subject (A is like an arrow pointing up) and refers to the area of study of that course (A – astronomy).
The branding colors are neutral-space black and white, as well as technological blue. The branded fonts are Noir Pro and Conqueror Sans. Times New Roman is used for mathematical and chemical formulas and equations.
Other materials
I prepared a bunch of consistent thumbnails for youtube, as well as presentations, materials for seminars and workshops, titles, and other stuff.
