Stack the frame: the presenter on top at about 39 percent of the height, one continuous locked shot; a whiteboard canvas below at about 61 percent, hand-drawn style on white.\n2. Frame 0: the first board already drawn with the promise of the video in two or three shapes. The first word is on frame 0.\n3. For each numbered point: clear to a fresh area, write the number in a coloured circle and the heading, then draw each shape and word at the moment it is said, led by a labelled cursor. Type text letter by letter.\n4. A cleared section lands about once every 8 to 12 seconds, with small strokes all the time in between.\n5. End on a row of all the numbered circles as a recap, then the call to action.\n6. Captions of two words (one to three), white bold sans on a dark rounded box at the foot of the presenter zone, the spoken word in the accent colour.\n7. No music, no sound effects. Voice at -14 LUFS, true peak at or under -1.5 dBTP.\n\n## Not for\n\nEmotional stories, testimonials, product beauty, luxury brands, anything under 45 seconds.",

  "chat": "Give me a production plan: the shots or scenes in order, what each one needs, and the edit settings, for a short video about [your product], for [your audience]. The technique is presenter over a drawn board: every point is drawn at the moment it is said, so the board stays readable as notes. How it works: a presenter in one continuous shot on top, a hand-drawn whiteboard below that fills in stroke by stroke as the words are said, one numbered section at a time, two-word captions on the seam. It is right for: explainers, frameworks, numbered ways or steps, course teasers. Never show a board section finished before its point is spoken. Measured: 1.03 big changes per 10 seconds with a median of 9.22 seconds between them, because a section is drawn up gradually and only clears on the next number. Be concrete: numbers, seconds and settings, no theory. Ask me one question first if something you need is missing."
