It started with one image. A skull. I couldn't stop looking at it. It felt like it was alive and dying at the same time. So I kept going. Each version felt like the same soul dying in a new color. Then I thought… what if it actually moved? So I took my Firefly images and brought them to life with the new Kling 4.0 No camera. No studio. Just one skull and a feeling I had to follow. This is "Pigment of the Dead."

Hiii! I joined the Contra x CapCut challenge, having never used CapCut AI before. I’d only ever edited videos manually.

After three days of struggling with prompts, inconsistent characters, and scenes that absolutely refused to cooperate, I finally found my story.

I'm working at my desk with my dogs when an alien crashes into my life and invites me to LA. We travel across the universe, I get beamed onto a stage, and for a moment, I'm living the dream.

Then I turn into an alien.

And get kicked out because NO ALIENS ALLOWED.

All that intergalactic travel to technically make it to LA. 😂
