0:00intro talking head with graphics
A medium shot frames a young, light-skinned Black man with a close-cropped buzz cut, looking directly at the camera. He wears a dark olive green collared jacket over a dark t-shirt. His facial expression is neutral to slightly smiling, conveying an approachable demeanor. The background is a plain, soft, light peachy-pink color, evenly lit with no discernible shadows or highlights, creating a minimalist and clean aesthetic. The dominant colors are the warm skin tone of the man, the earthy olive green of his jacket, and the pastel pink background. Overlaying the scene are several white text graphics: 'THE TREVOR PROJECT' logo with 'Saving Young LGBTQ Lives' on the left, 'Abercrombie & Fitch' on the right, and a block of text in the lower-middle stating 'Together, with your help, A&F has donated $600,000 to The Trevor Project since 2010.' At the very bottom, a black banner with white text reads 'Face your Fierce'. The overall atmosphere is informative and supportive.
0:00monochrome profile to front shot
The scene transitions to a monochrome (black and white) color palette, featuring a subtle film grain effect and vignetted, rounded corners, emulating a vintage film aesthetic. The lighting is soft and diffused, creating gentle gradients on the subject's skin and highlighting his features without harsh shadows. The shot begins as a close-up profile view of the man, facing towards the right side of the frame, with his mouth slightly ajar as if speaking. He slowly and deliberately turns his head to face the camera more directly, his expression shifting from contemplative to a more serious, focused gaze. The background is a plain, light grey wall. A white text overlay at the bottom center of the frame reads: 'your fierce to me, is always being'.
0:01monochrome dynamic poses
This scene comprises two quick, dynamic shots of the man, maintaining the monochrome aesthetic with film grain and dark, rounded corners. The background remains a plain, light grey wall, providing a clean backdrop for the movements. The first shot is a slightly blurry, medium shot from a low angle, positioned behind and to the left of the man, capturing him in mid-movement as he raises his right arm. This cuts sharply to a clearer medium shot where he is positioned slightly to the left of the frame's center, facing forward. His right arm is gracefully raised and bent at the elbow, with his hand near his head, while he gazes confidently slightly off-camera. The lighting remains soft and even. A white text overlay is consistently displayed at the bottom center, now reading: 'yourself every day'.
0:03monochrome neck touch transition
The scene continues with the monochrome visual style, including the persistent film grain and dark, rounded corners. The plain light grey background remains constant. It begins with a brief, slightly blurred shot capturing the man's hand as it moves towards his neck, implying a smooth and deliberate action. This quickly cuts to a close-up profile view of the man, now facing towards the left side of the frame. Both of his hands are gently placed at the back of his neck, with his head slightly tilted backward. His gaze is directed downwards and to the left, creating an introspective or slightly vulnerable mood. The soft, even lighting continues to define his facial contours. The white text overlay at the bottom center of the frame reads: 'and always putting out'.
0:04monochrome final statement shot
The final scene is a medium shot of the man, returning to a similar framing as seen earlier in the black and white sequence. He is positioned slightly off-center to the left, looking directly into the camera with a confident and resolute gaze. The monochrome palette, film grain, and dark, rounded corners are consistent. The background is a plain, evenly lit light grey wall. The white text overlay at the bottom center of the frame completes the sentence, reading: 'your best foot forward.'. The overall mood is empowering, concluding the message with a strong visual statement. The lighting is soft and consistent, highlighting the man's determined expression.
