concept
The film centers on a live radio drama where the script constantly changes, much to the writer's frustration. Yet, the show must go on! I aimed to visually represent the audio-only action, highlighting how the spontaneous script changes create tension between the writer and the voice actors. Additionally, I included hidden details—easter eggs of objects that reference behind-the-scenes moments in the recording studio.
To illustrate the constant change, I depict a continuous journey through interconnected environments, each representing a scene from the radio drama. The conflict is shown by having opposing elements clash and replace one another, mirroring the evolving script.
