VFX Scope Overview
This project is a 25-minute short film shot on Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K (BRAW Q0, 6144x3456) and iPhone 14 Pro. Final delivery is cropped to 2.39:1 at 23.976 fps, color-managed in DaVinci Resolve (BMD Film Gen 5 → Rec.709). All rough “roadmap” composites were built in DaVinci Resolve/Fusion for timing and framing; they are functional but require pro-level polish and realism.
Source material includes:
Green screen footage (hotel interior, car interiors – day & night)
Practical driving background plates (Panasonic GH5, 4K)
iPhone footage for select pickups
Final VFX will be delivered back in a Resolve-friendly format (ProRes 4444 with alpha or final comp baked over plate, as appropriate).
Deadline: Final approved VFX by October 10, 2025 (festival-ready).
