Overview
Captain Keith MacKenzie searches for a cure for his wife's contagious illness before it spreads past saving. A Dallas 48 hour short made with REEF 404.
Goal
Make a sci-fi premise feel personal before it feels global.
Approach
Kept the outbreak offscreen and the marriage onscreen. Used the deadline as the antagonist as much as the virus. Prioritised performance over effects given the 48 hour window.
