Synopsis
Reid Hannaford, a down-on-his-luck director, stumbles upon a workflow that lets him generate perfect starting images, rig them in 3D software, and animate cameras with pinpoint precision. His first test short goes viral, landing him a studio deal for a blockbuster. As production ramps up with multiple characters and seamless dialogue, Reid pushes boundaries further, crafting sequences no one thought possible. But success breeds paranoia as elements from his films start manifesting in reality, forcing him to question if he's directing or being directed.
The story
Reid, frustrated with conventional limits, experiments with the new workflow after a chance discovery, creating a stunning test that shocks the industry and opens doors.
With a big budget, Reid assembles a team and dives into production, but the technique's power amplifies his control freak tendencies, leading to conflicts with actors and hallucinations that blur script and life.
In the climax, Reid must choose between completing his masterpiece or destroying the process that created it, culminating in a meta-twist where the audience questions if they're watching his film or reality.

Cold open
INT. DIMLY LIT APARTMENT - NIGHT REID HANNAFORD, 30s, disheveled, hunches over his laptop. Blue light flickers on his face. He clicks: a generated frame of a rainy cyberpunk street appears. He matches poses in Blender, fingers dancing. Camera animates smoothly. REID (whispering) This... this shouldn't work. He feeds it into the system. On screen, the scene comes alive with perfect dialogue from animated characters. Reid leans back, eyes wide. REID I'm blown away. Wind howls outside, matching the on-screen storm. His reflection merges with the digital world.
