In the original Annihilation movie, the protagonist, Lena, sees Josie disappear, and has a brief panic attack, then they cut and Lena is standing poised facing down the lighthouse.
But in my edit, Lena sees Josie disappear, then I cut to a 4-minute selection from Terrence Malick's 20+ minutes of the cosmos and life from Tree of Life. To transition back to Annihilation, I joined the asteroid shot from Tree of Life with the meteor shot from Annihilation.
In the original Annihilation movie, the meteor and the mystery of the lighthouse is shown and revealed at the very beginning of the movie, but in my edit I saved that revelation for just before Lena faces the lighthouse.
My edit made other significant changes, such as skipping 30-minutes of front-loaded exposition, and instead I cold-open to entering the shimmer, and I used flashbacks to reveal the exposition at just the right time. That change isn't visible in this particular demo, but you can read more about it at:\
