Editorial Structure & Storyboard Timeline (161s Total Runtime · Fast (2.2s avg shot))

• 01 · THE HOOK (00:00 – 00:23 · 14%): Prompt-to-Execution Split Reveal for recursive_si — Opens immediately on the high-contrast tension point before showing the brand logo, locking viewer retention in the first 23 seconds. (Camera: 1.6x macro push-in with 0ms dead air on frame 1)
• 02 · HERO UI REVEAL (00:23 – 01:11 · 30%): Core recursive_si Surface & Interaction Loop — Demonstrates the primary action in a single continuous take (48s) with cursor smoothing and highlighted focal bounds. (Camera: Isometric-to-flat spring settle (cubic-bezier 0.22, 1, 0.36, 1))
• 03 · VELOCITY MONTAGE (01:11 – 02:06 · 34%): Multi-State Feature Proof on Downbeat Cuts — Compresses 3–4 secondary workflows into rapid visual proof without narration drag. (Camera: Fast (2.2s avg shot) matched to 122 BPM transients)
• 04 · PAYOFF & LOCKUP (02:06 – 02:41 · 22%): recursive_si Brand Lockup & Availability CTA — Holds final URL and launch status cleanly for 35s so viewers on X stop scrolling and click the link. (Camera: Clean center lockup with subtle radial luminance decay)
