Runway of History

After Runway of Power, I wanted to push the same catwalk idea beyond living politicians. Runway of History puts Lincoln, Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, Einstein, and other historical figures in one impossible couture show.

The lineup only works if every figure is readable in a few seconds. Costume, posture, era, and silhouette have to survive the fashion treatment without turning the whole thing into random costume noise.

I generated the looks as still images, animated them with video models, and finished the sequence by hand so it moved like a runway presentation rather than a folder of unrelated clips.
