Approach

  1. 01Direction first: a shot list, lens plan and grade reference were locked before a single frame was generated.
  2. 02The car was rebuilt from factory CAD as a reference asset so every generated angle held the same panel geometry and badge.
  3. 03Night was treated as a single continuous location — one colour temperature, one rain density, one reflection logic across all twelve setups.
  4. 04Delivery was cut in-house against the composer's stems, then finished to broadcast spec.

Craft notes

  • /Panel-consistent vehicle across 340 generated frames
  • /Single-source rain and reflection model
  • /Anamorphic 2.39 with matched flare behaviour
  • /Dolby-graded master plus 6 platform cutdowns
