Why it works
The 50-frame black lead makes the first embodied approach feel like a reveal. Shot 4 turns an extreme mechanism view into wide proof at frames 490 and 565, while shot 20 gives the physical result 322 frames before identity arrives. The cuts follow events: only 6 of 21 fall near tracked beats.
