FALTA: clip MUSES 07Making of, first look. Ten decisions from the preparation of a film that isn't finished yet.

Morning sun through haze, milky sky. No flares, no hard light on faces.
Every frame prompted as a 35mm anamorphic film still on Kodak Vision3. Never “photorealistic”.
HQ: a converted old firehouse. Red brick, cream stone bands, three arches.
A lived-in Southern California suburb. No palm trees, no pure white. The British and Mediterranean versions were cut.
Cyclist kit, not biker leather. The H sits over the heart.
The hydration tube, sipped like a cigarette. The water rises like smoke.

One e-bike in six colours, one per rider.
Each tool does one job: Gemini edits, FLUX reframes, Seedance moves, DaVinci unifies.
The logo on the arch isn't generated. It's tracked in Fusion; generating it warped the image.
Zero engine hum. The music cuts on the pips, and the silence is the joke.
I spent 25 years building worlds on film and commercial sets: 600+ commercials, 100+ of them as art director or production designer, props buyer on Uncharted for Sony Pictures, art director on the series Mamen Mayo for SkyShowtime. Now I make films with AI, and I show every decision along the way.
