Why it works
The opening withholds readable type until a bright edge appears near 2.75 s, turning letter recognition into a reason to watch. Six hidden hard cuts at frames 199, 267, 335, 404, 472 and 610 change the silhouette, then the long pullback from frame 610 resolves the name into a compact lockup. The measured 112.35 BPM pulse supports the picture, while zero of the retained cues land on a cut.
