High Tech // Low Life #1/4

Inspired by the cyberpunk genre, this short film shows a slice of the world our protagonist inhabits, along with a cybernetic police force.

The goal with this project was to create a repeatable procedure for creating personal projects. What I ended up developing is the idea of the "micro film", a term for telling a self contained story within 3 camera angles and attempts to stay within 30 seconds of footage.

Doing this forces me to focus only on the elements that tell the story, but also, promotes world building and developing every single object inside of the frame.

My hope is that everyone seeing this, is that they feel that there's a bigger world at play and we are just seeing a tiny part of it.
