The brief

Salt asked for the opposite of a stadium spot: no crowd, no cuts on the beat, no shouting. A chase with nobody chasing.

Approach

  1. 01We committed to a single frame line — camera at ankle height, runner never centred, always leaving frame right.
  2. 02Light was generated as a sequence, not a look: failing tubes in real order across nine kilometres of tunnel.
  3. 03Stills for OOH were pulled from the same generation pass so print and film share a single grade.

Craft notes

  • /Locked low camera line and exit-frame discipline across the cut
  • /Continuous lighting decay, not looped flicker
  • /48-sheet stills pulled at 300dpi from the film pass
  • /Breath-and-footfall sound design, no music bed
