Storyboard for Short Film — Night Ride
This project is a full storyboard for a short film with a thriller-horror twist.
I developed a complete visual breakdown of each scene based on the screenplay, focusing on atmosphere, framing, and emotional beats.

Synopsis
The story begins in a vibrant yet ominous night city — neon lights, busy traffic, and empty side streets. Three friends leave a club, laughing and making plans, but one decides to walk alone. Her stroll through the quieter parts of the city draws unwanted attention. A car follows. Then another… Eventually, she gets into what appears to be a regular taxi.

The quiet ride turns into something far stranger and more unsettling. What seems like a dangerous situation takes an unexpected turn when the true predator reveals herself.
