Why it works
The first shot lasts 268 frames but changes depth with a 30-frame focus pull beginning at frame 12, letting a tiny guide lead into the larger craft world without an early cut. The process and tester establish a consequential standard; two brief inserts at frames 870–916 precede the 83-frame product card, giving the verdict a clear visual release.
