The Challenge

We wanted to prove out a pipeline that moves between live plates, 3D environments and generative passes without the seams showing — and the honest way to test that is to make something with a story in it.

The Approach

The film was written first and solved second. Environments were built in 3D, extended with generative passes where they earned it, and composited over practical elements. Every technique in it exists because a shot needed it.

The Result

An eight-minute film, a festival cut, and a production approach now used on client work where photography and computer graphics have to share the same frame.
