15sDesert Convoy Flees Colossal Sandstorm in Sci-Fi Chase
A 15-second epic sci-fi sequence in gritty IMAX-style realism: a tiny convoy of neon-lit dune buggies races across a desert as a miles-high sandstorm swallows the landscape. The action moves from an extreme wide establishing shot to a shaking cockpit view and ends with a slow-motion jump silhouetted against the storm before cutting to black.
