0:00pulling sleeve from envelope An overhead, medium close-up shot captures a light-skinned hand with well-maintained, short fingernails delicately extracting a transparent plastic sleeve from a slightly open, thick brown kraft paper envelope. The envelope rests on a light beige, textured carpet or rug, which forms a soft, diffused background. Inside the sleeve, a stack of white-bordered, square photo prints is partially visible. The lighting is bright and even, typical of an indoor setting with ample natural or soft artificial light, creating gentle highlights on the plastic and paper textures. There are no harsh shadows. The color palette is dominated by neutral tones: the warm brown of the envelope, the creamy white of the prints, and the light beige of the carpet. A white text overlay at the top of the screen reads "And then I picked". The camera maintains a static position, focusing on the careful action of the hand.
0:01fanning through photo prints This scene continues the overhead, medium close-up view, now showing two light-skinned hands with short, clean fingernails holding and slowly fanning through a stack of approximately ten square photo prints. Each print features a white border, framing various romantic images of a couple. The images displayed include a couple in black attire sitting together with "2023" balloons in the background, a black and white shot of a couple on a beach at sunset, a couple sharing a tender moment in a street or urban setting, and a couple taking a selfie outdoors with an urban backdrop. The hands meticulously reveal each print, allowing the viewer to briefly see the content before moving to the next. The background remains the same open brown kraft paper envelope lying on a light beige textured carpet. The lighting is consistent with the previous scene—bright, even, and soft. As the hands present the photos, various white text overlays appear sequentially, such as "up 10 prints of our favorite photos of us to us," "to use as table numbers for our wedding reception," and "So if you guys are interested in any of these things, check out Artifact Uprising." The overall color palette is a mix of the subdued neutrals of the background and the varied colors (and monochrome) within the photo prints themselves. The camera maintains a static, stable shot, occasionally making minor micro-adjustments to keep the hands centered.
