Runway of History

After Runway of Power, I wanted to try the same catwalk idea with historical figures instead of living politicians. Runway of History puts Lincoln, Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, Einstein, and others in one couture show.

The lineup only works if you can tell who each figure is within a few seconds. Their era, posture, and silhouette still had to come through the fashion styling, or the whole thing would look like random costumes.

I generated the looks as still images, animated them with video models, and finished the sequence by hand so it moves like a runway show.
