Why it works
The first image holds a low sunset horizon, then changes by a hidden hard cut at frame 67 before the first word at 3.46 s; the quiet opening makes the later scale shift feel earned. Shot 17's hard cut at frame 1442 turns a floating object into a giant name graphic, and the seven-frame fade into shot 18 releases five short, brightly coloured glimpses before the end card at frame 1664.
