27Morning fog
a soft grey-white haze swallowing the street
Cyberpunk neon is a rain-slicked night of magenta, cyan and violet signs, holograms and rising steam.
28Live-action footage, real people, natural skin and textures, in a cyberpunk neon night: a rain-slicked street reflecting glowing neon signs in magenta, cyan and violet, holographic adverts on the buildings, steam rising from the pavement, high contrast against deep darkness. A city street at night in the rain. A young man in a dark wool coat walks along the sidewalk past shop windows toward a small corner café. Wide shot, the camera tracking sideways beside him at walking pace from the first second. 0–2s: he walks past a row of shop windows. 2–4s: he passes a flower stall and a parked bicycle. 4–6s: he reaches the café and the camera eases to a stop as he does. 6–8s: he opens the café door and steps inside. Throughout: the street stays rain-slicked and glowing with magenta, cyan and violet neon, one continuous take.

Rain and steam give the neon something to reflect and glow through. Without them the street looks like an ordinary night.
