Higgsfield Global Film Festival

Characters

Everyone in the film was created before a single shot was generated, so a face stays the same face from the first scene to the last.

Locations

The places were built the same way: created first, then used as the reference for every shot that happens there.

Props

Each prop was made once, so it looks the same in every shot.

From pieces to shots

Every shot was built from the pieces made before it.

John, the hero
Rebecca, the girlfriend
The red car
The ice creams

Rebecca's house
The coffee shop terrace
