RICOCHET is a one-take action film shot entirely from inside a bullet.

A single round is fired down a corridor, misses a woman by an inch, ricochets up through three floors of a building where fights are already in progress, falls back down the stairwell shaft, and destroys the revolver that fired it. No cuts. No dialogue.

I built it this way because the one-take rule usually fights the filmmaker — here it's the engine. A projectile can only travel forward, so every change of direction had to be caused by something physical: a deflection off a pillar, a shattered pane, a burst pipe, gravity. The camera has no freedom, and that's exactly why the continuity holds.

Workflow: a single timestamped POV prompt in CapCut Video Studio with Seedance 2.5 — [N] reference images for the corridor, office floor and stairwell shaft, plus one video reference used for camera pacing only, generated natively at [30s, 4K]. Every fighter is a backlit silhouette so no face can drift; the only clearly lit human in the film is the woman at the near miss. The final frame matches the opening frame, so it loops.
