Step into the world of You Were Perfect
Where memory fades, identity shifts, and every frame speaks volumes.
From the very beginning, You Were Perfect has followed a bold vision: to build a cinematic world that feels as emotionally real as it looks. We’re not just telling a story – we’re crafting an environment where grief, love, hope, and acceptance take shape through light, texture, and space.
Designing emotion: a world built with purpose
This isn’t a film filled with digital backdrops or shortcuts. Every set in You Were Perfect is real, hand-built, and intentionally designed. Whether it’s the flickering lights in a cold municipal office or the chilling stillness of the void surrounding our protagonist, each space holds meaning. These environments don’t just support the story – they help tell it.
Through physical sets, thoughtful production design, and a touch of surrealism, we draw viewers into a world that feels raw and deeply personal. The setting becomes more than a backdrop. It becomes an emotional landscape.

Space that speaks to the soul
The design reflects the film’s core: an intimate journey through grief, memory, and healing. Each location mirrors the protagonist Francis’s inner world, turning emotions into architecture.
Rooms shift with mood. Colors carry weight. Angles suggest tension or release. Textures whisper truths that words cannot. By rooting surreal moments in tactile, lived-in spaces, we create a bridge between what’s felt and what’s seen.
Big vision, intimate details
Though You Were Perfect is a short film, we approached production design with feature-level ambition. We believe that to tell a story about deep, complex emotion, the world must feel whole – every detail designed to pull you in and hold you there.
This isn’t a world you simply watch. It’s one you experience.
A film that lives through design
Our design team and art department bring this vision to life with incredible passion and care. Their work turns abstract feeling into physical form. Every shot reflects their dedication to creating an immersive, emotional journey.
And we’re just getting started.
