Week One storyboard of chasm that inspired matte painting (week two).

The transition from storyboarding to virtual cinematography was interesting. Week one was about synthesizing Team Carat’s vision as a collective whole, allthewhile prioritizing narrative. During Week two, the team refined camera movements of each person’s shots. A hurdle I find myself encountering is my affliction for episodic visuals. This previs is a previous version of shot 1:1-3 that we scrapped since it didn’t match Bvlgari’s brand identity for a 30 second spot.
