Ghost City is a Bright Ruin original—a cinematic AI animation designed for narrative clarity, visual consistency, and system logic.
This page breaks down the structure and visual plan behind the project. Sequence, motif, and motion are mapped out for a clear, intentional result—no randomness, every frame and effect built on purpose to drive the story forward.
Every element here is part of a creative engine, not just a visual experiment.
