Updraft

A marigold paper plane is chased by an FPV drone through a green near-future city. It rides a storm of blossom petals back toward a child’s terrace. Procedural towers, a skybridge, a stream walkway and a blossom plaza set the route and its changes of scale.

The project develops the city, camera paths and shot blockouts in Blender, then takes selected views into generated stills and motion. The paper plane and the petal storm connect the individual shots. This is the H3 cut; the wider film is still in progress.
