The first pan of a series of three shot shows two skeletons spewing toxic breath at one another in a hellscape. The second pan shows one skeleton on the right spewing toxic COVID breath at a masked woman on the left. The pans in those shot show how far apart the people are from one another. Social distancing is implied. This third shot was also a pan but I reworked it to simply move the couple closer together. Instead of the camera move I focused my energy on getting them to have as much depth as possible. I also decided not to animate them letting them simply stare into each others eyes. I had considered animating them hugging but in a hug one face or another is often lost. The staging was too difficult.
I also added the golden confetti swirling around them. This might seem a bit cheesy but it sells the simple point being made. The painting I had in the original illustration of the man was of a zombie. He was bruised and a bit bloodied. I decided that was the wrong messaging so I repainted him to be a younger handsome man. The goal was to push this towards a romance novel cover image rather than my usual hellish imagery. For a brief 2 second moment the raging COVID fires were extinguished.
