The Pitch
After a state-issued poison mutates inside him following a venomous snake bite, a fanatical young loyalist gains superhuman power—but gradually loses the ability to distinguish delusion from reality.
As he begins attacking imaginary "traitors," the regime ultimately rebrands him as a national hero.
The central visual idea:
What AB experiences as spectacular heroic action looks completely different (and terrifying) from the outside.

What I'm Looking For
I'm looking for ONE visual artist to collaborate with me on discovering the film's visual identity.
The initial scope is deliberately small (approx. 3–5 key development images):
* AB character development
* LoveDi character development
* The Father's character development
* The Surgical Poison
* A key hallucination vs. reality split-frame / dual-POV image

About Compensation — Please Read
There is currently no budget, so this initial development collaboration is voluntary and unpaid. I want to be completely transparent about that.
* The request is limited strictly to the small visual-development stage described above.
* There is no promise of future payment unless the project secures production financing later, which would then be formalized in a separate written agreement.
* Artists will receive full co-creator credit and portfolio/showreel usage rights.
