• Project Brief: Craft a short film that reinterprets historical photography through AI to explore the meaning of art across time.

A short film earns its ambition when the concept stops being a concept and becomes something you can feel. "Red Blue Yellow Black Again" gets there by treating Rodchenko's Soviet Constructivist legacy not as a mood board but as a living argument worth continuing.

Rare archival photographs went through AI restoration and recombination, and the results don't look restored so much as reanimated. Rodchenko's sharp angles and geometric obsessions survive the process intact, but the images have acquired something they didn't have before: a pulse.

The script lifts directly from Rodchenko's own letters and memoirs, and that single decision changes the temperature of the whole film. He was a better advocate for his own ideas than any writer hired to explain them, and hearing his words close the gap between 1920s Moscow and now faster than any transition effect could.

Slow-motion and atmospheric sound give the characters physical weight without killing the film's momentum. "Color is dead" was never a eulogy, and Digital Da Vincis treats it as an opening argument about what AI can do when it's handed something worth working with.
