Why it works
The oblique terrain map starts changing at 0:00.55, reveals a city scale proposal by 0:20, and turns it into explicit questions by 0:31–0:42. Later, stable geography and sequential colored layers let the viewer compare proposals without relearning the map; the clearest belt and buffer build at 2:47.9–2:55.5 is the strongest replay peak. Across the measured six minutes, 67 cuts and 113 internal steps provide motion while long shots retain spatial continuity.
