Echoes of Time is an AI film short conceived and produced in less than two days for the RUNWAY GEN 48 filmmaking challenge. For the challenge, we were tasked with envisioning an Inciting Incident, a Character Archetype, and a Location. I chose:
Inciting Incident: A Character's Disappearance Character Archetype: A Mischievous Creator Location: Time-Shifted Realm
Scenario: A brilliant but eccentric inventor disappears while testing her latest creation: a device that allows her to step into different time periods. Her disappearance sets off a chain of events that threatens the fabric of time itself. As reality begins to unravel, the inventor must navigate through various eras, using her wit and ingenuity to find her way back to the present and repair the damage she's caused.
