Launch Day

Live-action photoreal, near-future, epic grade. A launchpad at dawn, a towering rocket wreathed in venting vapor, gantry structure. Early morning, cold. A person in a technical flight jacket stands at the pad base, looking up at the rocket. The camera pedestals straight up the length of the rocket, rising vertically to reveal its full height into the pale sky. Cool dawn light, drifting vapor, 24mm, pedestal up. Shallow depth of field, subtle grain, 24fps.
