Last Light

The story

A sixty-second launch film for a two-door coupe, chasing the last twenty minutes of sun across a desert pass. The idea was to sell the coupe through one feeling: the last warm minutes of a long drive. I wrote the treatment around golden hour, set the copper palette with the colorist before the shoot, and had the crew rehearse at noon so the sunset could be spent rolling.

Behind the scenes
