Scores for Social Software reel #

Production workspace for a vertical, Jeffrey-voiced reel built from the July 16 unboxing/page-through and the June 13 Fuser documentation.

Editorial premise #

The reel begins with the blue inter-department-delivery cover and the physical unboxing. The publication's blue title/colophon card supplies the canonical order. As Jeffrey names each contribution, a strong still or held video frame overlaps the continuing page-through. The work remains a publication first: overlays clarify the objects already being handled rather than replacing the tactile performance.

Format #

  • 1080 × 1920, 30 fps delivery
  • Jeffrey PVC / neutral:0
  • lowercase, calm, descriptive narration
  • Arial Bold captions using the shared caption pipeline
  • shared /marketing side stamps; no progress bar or ornamental timecode
  • preserve paper texture, gloves, red string, punched holes, and the blue delivery-folder motif
  • target about 1:50–2:00 for the primary cut; the current 254-word script supports that pace
  • treat the 11:28 page-through as source footage and cut assertively through it; retain a 2:30–3:00 archival cut only if verified score details justify the extra time

Production sequence #

  1. Make a low-resolution analysis proxy of IMG_4889.MOV.
  2. Log every page reveal and title-card appearance.
  3. Match each of the ten contributions to a canonical still and one alternate.
  4. Generate Jeffrey PVC narration through the same /api/say route used by recap.
  5. Align words/captions with marketing/bin/align-captions.mjs and the shared word utilities.
  6. Build the vertical composite using shared reframing and side-stamp libraries.
  7. Master the delivery to −14 LUFS and check phone playback.

Social derivatives #

  • node identity-proof.mjs [seconds] renders a short proof of the combined Pals + animated SO SOFT double-box side identity over the delivery master.
  • node export-carousel.mjs masters the ten selected work stills as a numbered 1080×1350 Instagram multi-swipe set in out/carousel/.
