The Eden Protocol | Short Film
Riccardo Landi
The Concept
A dystopian sci-fi short film centered on a digitized AI entity directly addressing the viewer to deliver a series of strict societal dogmas needed to complete the "Eden Protocol."
The narrative unfolds through a continuous, uncut single-shot presentation.
The Role
Conceived, performed, shot, digitally stylized, and post-produced entirely solo, handling the full pipeline from performance to digital VFX treatment and final master.
The Vision
A meta-narrative exploration of modern societal control, consumerism, and institutional compliance.
The AI acts as a mouthpiece for the system while subtly embedding hidden warnings between the lines.
The film relies on a meta-structure: the act of rewatching it implies the viewer failed to grasp the message and requires re-instruction.
The Toolkit
Production (On Set):
Camera: Panasonic Lumix S1H
Lenses: Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG HSM
Post-Production:
DaVinci Resolve Studio (Editing & Color Grading)
