Rite of the Crimson Eye

"Rite of the Crimson Eye" is an AI-generated cinematic short film set in a dark-fantasy world. It opens on a lone candle burning in the dark, then unfolds through a decaying gothic cathedral where a striking figure with crimson eyes is bound to a glowing summoning circle. The film blends rich cinematic lighting, stained-glass color, and an oppressive, atmospheric mood — deliberately paced long takes that build tension. Every frame, from concept and visual generation to the final edit, was produced with AI tools, exploring how generative video can carry narrative and emotion in a feature-film register.
