THE SEA PAGODA SHADOW - You in the Film: You in the Film — The Patron

The Sea Pagoda Shadow, AI Short Movie

Late afternoon on Rue Catinat. Jörg and Sarah run past a gallery window. His own early photographs — eleven of them, framed and lit — hang inside. He falters mid-stride. Through the glass, a woman stands with her back to the street, studying a painting, unaware that the man who made those photographs is passing behind her.

She never turns around. She never learns he was there.

You become her.

The deliverable is the scene. Five seconds inside The Sea Pagoda Shadow — a silent passage as the only person in the film who knew Jörg as an artist rather than a war photographer. Your likeness is generated into the character. Your name appears in the closing credits under The Negative Archive.

The NFT is the on-chain record of that participation. It contains the scene still from the finished film, the role metadata, and the credit. No speculative asset. A receipt for a part you played.
