FOUND FOOTAGE #001 The Dragon In The Clouds
· fu afu · 15s · 720p
Found footage, vertical 9:16, realistic amateur handheld camcorder footage in the mountains at dusk. The camera shakily records clouds and mountain peaks. After a moment, a huge dark shape appears in the mist. The operator notices it late and suddenly zooms in too fast. Autofocus hunts. The framing is messy and accidental. A gigantic black dragon emerges partially from the clouds, never fully centered, never posing. It is partly hidden by fog, sometimes cut off by the frame. The camera shakes harder as the operator panics and breathes heavily. The dragon briefly turns toward the camera. The operator stumbles backward. Add timestamp overlay, VHS/static distortion, digital zoom noise, motion blur, compression artifacts, unsettling realism. End with signal interference and an abrupt cut. Avoid clean cinematic composition, fantasy poster look, stable camera, heroic full-body dragon shot, cartoon, animation, polished CGI. Do not make the dragon centered or fully visible. The creature should feel accidentally captured, partially obscured, and frighteningly real.
