SCENE CONTEXT Late afternoon, autumn. A young man and a young woman meet at the open main gate of a red-brick university campus. REFERENCES <IMAGE_1> — man, early 20s, dark wavy hair, light stubble, small scar through the right eyebrow, charcoal knit hoodie over a brown tee. 100% matches the reference. <IMAGE_2> — woman, early 20s, long wavy auburn hair, freckles across nose and cheeks, hazel eyes, dark jacket. 100% matches the reference. <IMAGE_3> — the campus gate: black iron gates standing open, brick-and-stone pillars, arched sign reading "ASHFORD UNIVERSITY" above the opening. 100% matches the reference. FRAMING Camera outside the gate on the paved path, eye-level 1.6 meters, four meters back. Medium shot at 47° FOV, both figures knees-up with the arch and sign readable above them. Slow dolly-in at 2 km/h across the full ten seconds. One continuous shot, the camera does not cut on its own. FIRST FRAME The woman stands at the right-hand gate pillar, angled camera-left, one hand on her bag strap, scanning the path. The man enters from the left edge, mid-stride, three meters from her. Both stay inside the gate opening. ACTION 0–2.5s the man walks in from screen-left at 5 km/h, eyes lifting to her, dry leaves shifting underfoot. 2.5–4.5s she straightens off the pillar and lifts one hand shoulder-high in a small open-palm wave. 4.5–6.5s he lifts a hand back and slows to 3 km/h over the last two meters. 6.5–8s they stop half a meter apart in three-quarter profile to camera and speak. 8–10s both hold the smile, she tucks a strand of hair behind her left ear, they begin to turn together toward the campus as the camera keeps pushing. PERFORMANCE Restrained and real. Her smile builds from the eyes first, outer corners creasing before the mouth. His is closed-lipped and one-sided with a single small nod. Pore-level skin, freckles visible, cold flush on both noses, catch-lights in living eyes, visible breath, hair strands moving in the air. Full body weight on each footfall, contact shadows under both pairs of shoes. LIGHTING Soft overcast daylight from above and slightly behind camera, 5600K, cool sky fill, warm bounce off the red brick onto the near side of both faces. Open sky beyond the gate one stop hotter than the foreground paving. Haze visible at 40 meters down the avenue. AUDIO Campus ambience, wind through dry leaves. Woman: "Hey — you actually made it." Man: "Told you I would. Hi." STYLE Photoreal live-action, natural daylight, fine film grain, 16:9, real-time speed. LOCKS The sign reads "ASHFORD UNIVERSITY" in raised metal letters, legible throughout. Gates stay fully open. His scar stays on the right eyebrow, her freckles stay visible, her hair stays long, wavy and auburn. Wardrobe, weather and light direction stay identical for all ten seconds. Faces stay 100% matched to <IMAGE_1> and <IMAGE_2>, gate 100% matched to <IMAGE_3>.
