Flooded Metropolis — Drowned Skyscraper Pass

16:9 video, 12 seconds. A drowned city: the camera threads a metropolis the sea has claimed — skyscrapers rising from gray water like broken teeth.

0-4s: The drone weaves between the towers, their lower floors dark with tide lines, windows long since emptied. Small boats putt through the flooded avenues below, their wakes the only traffic. Gulls nest on the penthouse ledges, white flecks against the glass and steel. The water is gray-blue, opaque, hiding the drowned streets.
4-8s: A half-submerged ferris wheel turns slowly in the current, its top cabins above water, its lower half green with algae — still turning, patient and pointless. The drone circles it once, the cabins creaking past, then continues down the flooded avenue, the towers closing overhead like a canyon.
8-12s: The weave ends at the avenue's mouth, where the sea opens beyond the last towers. The drone holds on the drowned skyline from the water's level — broken teeth against the grey sky — as a boat's wake crosses the frame and settles. A gull lands on a half-drowned streetlamp, folding its wings against the grey.

Detail: the tide lines' dark bands, the boats' small wakes, the gulls' penthouse nests, the ferris wheel's slow turn, the algae's green on the submerged steel. Camera: smooth weaving flight between the towers, the water-level hold at the end. Lighting: gray-blue water against glass and steel, overcast and still. Atmosphere: haunting, beautiful, drowned — a city holding its breath. Style: flooded-world cinema, smooth and mournful.
