In summer, the brand and the filmmaker encouraged photo enthusiasts and professional from all around the globe to submit their stills that would represent one of the upcoming story’s facets. The competition dubbed Project Imagin8ion finished in summer, but it wasn’t the end for the project itself—on December 16, the production team unveiled a result of result work, which can be viewed on the dedicated page (the film will be available to watch until December 19, 9 am EST, so it’s the last day you can view it).
