PROCESS

The initial concept behind this film was to capture frozen movements in time and watch as information is transferred from one unit to another in combating a criminal and terrorist threat. Due to a change in budget, the live-action shoot needed to be reimagined, and the decision was taken to take the original concept but rather than follow it within a real-world scenario, the real-world scenario would be brought into a digital domain.

Inspiration for the look of this digital space came from Under The Skin, Ghost In A Shell, and Stranger Things, where the protagonistic featured in a blacked-out space, able to connect to other characters and see these moments. In Ghost In A Shell, there was also a digital scanning effect that inspired how we could create other elements within the scene to help visualize the space the character was in.

Shot on a green screen, we keyed and rotoscoped the cast, then placed them within our fictitious world, using Red Giant’s Particular to create the digital threads that knitted the scenes together. We used 3D wireframe objects to extend the environment the characters were inside.
