Looking for 3D software that can create abstract backgrounds/animations on a similar level to Artmatic, with similar simplicity. (Except Bryce, since I already use that) (Image is for reference to what Artmatic looks like)

research for crappy cgi with a very empty artifcial feel examples (constructing a television studio)

hello! I'm conducting some research for a piece in a film I'm doing, where I want to 3d model a television studio in this very simplified cgi way, I'm looking for more examples/references if any of you guys know where I can find some/how I can look for them, to provide them to my animation collaborator.

the only example i have so far is from the dilluted animation pieces in "After Last Season" (2009), a bad cgi sweetheart, and maybe the sterile look of "Joshua and The Promised Land", also.

if any of you guys have some other leads, it would be very useful to be able to gather a reference gallery! the vibe is sterile, liminal space animation, little to no movement, the camera just flows observing the characters. i'm lacking more precise references for character appearance. the idea would be to construct a television studio in this manner, with hosts presenting.

Looking for spaceship interior shots.

I'm making a collage of retro cgi images and I need the interior of a spaceship. Something out of an old adventure game like a myst knockoff. Anyone got suggestions for artists or real games from the mid-late 90's that are an absolute mood?
