Suggested structure

The beats that work for this kind of video, in 45–60 seconds.

  1. 01The everyday moment (a video that loads instantly)
  2. 02The naive way it could work
  3. 03The trick, step by step
  4. 04Why it matters for you

Notes for the engine

Prefilled in the studio, so the video follows this brief. Edit them freely.

One idea per scene. Use an everyday analogy before any technical term, then name the term once.

Must show: The steps as an animated path from A to B

Avoid: Acronyms without a plain-words explanation
