I created “Evocation” for educational use and submitted it as my Film Studies/Mass Communications final.  All video used was captured in-game from Cyberpunk 2077.  The encounter is from an intense and fast-paced scenario near the beginning of the game in a place called “Night City”. The song is “Nightfall” by Mimi Page, from the Dark Soundtrack. Each is haunting and beautiful, and that affinity intertwines the film. My main goal was to take a pre-scripted in-game event of frantic, time-sensitive, cyber-ballistic warfare, and tell a different story through an unspoken narrative through unedited music and video editing.
