Blue Sapphire Back to the site

Thirty seconds

The same stone, in motion.

A short film for Blue Sapphire. The gemstone is not footage and not a 3D model — it is the same raymarched shader that runs in the hero of this site, rendered a frame at a time.

Rendered by tools/make-commercial.mjs. The shader is pulled out of assets/js/sapphire.js at build time rather than copied, so the stone in the film cannot drift away from the stone on the page. The soundtrack is generated by tools/make-commercial-audio.py — a drone, two impacts on the cuts and a bell on the logo — so nothing here is licensed from anyone.
