A Tale of Two Prototypes

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness… it was the year 2022, it was the year Twenty Two II.

And, in that dichotomy, two teams had very different — yet equally valid – takes on the year. In the end, we combined concepts and created what became Year in Search 2022. But, my team was still enormously proud of our so-close-yet-so-far, half-baked, baby proto (known to us as “Perseverance”). Luckily, many sequences from Perseverance made it into the final film.
