Why it works
The reference keeps a familiar printed chart visible while a finger traces its apparent gap in shot 2; the 0:09.4–0:11.3 interval is its strongest replay window. The fixed overhead view makes later cuts, curls and folds feel like tests on the same object, and the 616 px shift in shot 18 helps hand off from the physical conclusion to the product section.
