A rusted mechanical clown holds the chain of a rainbow airship over a candy-coloured fairground. Finished to the edge of the film stock, sprocket holes and all.
SurrealArchiveWorld-building stills — one frame that implies a whole film around it
What we tried
We tried finishing a generated frame as real film — Portra grain, frame edge, stock markings left in shot.
What happened
The frame furniture is what sells it. Crop the sprockets off and it goes straight back to looking generated.
What we learned
We learned the format is part of the photograph, not packaging around it.
