Here's my little animation based on the day to day exploits of Astronaut Mark Watney as he struggles to survive and escape Mars. I enjoyed the book so much it inspired me to make this. The music (Up around the bend, by Creedence Clearwater Revival) seemed to fit lyrically and musically and is good driving music (even on Mars!)
The does cover a lot of the main events so don't let this spoil your enjoyment of the book and here's hoping someone turns the book into a great movie!
Thanks for writing such an epic book Andy and please write more.
