EMBER: A Tiny Robot Relights a Dead Lighthouse

In a seaside town where every light went out, a tiny clockwork robot wakes up, catches the stars falling from the sky, and carries them through a storm to relight a dead lighthouse, so one small lost boat can find its way home. EMBER is a 2-minute animated short made entirely with AI tools: every shot, the title cards and the song.
