What came in, what changed

Own review of the live landing page: the hero led with the theme, the trailer copy read like a competition timeline, and the sections did not share a left edge.

New plot logline in the hero, competition play-by-play cut, every section on one edge, the About page rebuilt around writer-first.

A full plot dump for Film 1 was audited for holes and theme coverage against the trailer's father-son spine.

The treatment was rewritten around the film's plot rather than around the trailer, and the logline followed. Cover sheet personal statement kept.

The treatment had only been read by its author.

Ranking sessions for treatment readers and for the generation process were set up on Wabbit, with copy corrected the same day when a draft post overstated the production.

Stunt-rigging insurance could not be bound before the wire days, one day ahead of principal photography.

Rather than shoot suspended stunts without coverage, the shoot was cancelled and the trailer became fully generative from the existing storyboard. Audio stayed practical.

The drawn jetpacks looked dated and varied frame to frame while the real prop was practical and locked.

Every shot in canon got a technology manifest audited against its frame; jetpack and console frames were regenerated to the locked design.

The animatic v3 had excluded the nine sequence-K stunt shots as capture recipes.

Reversed: they are the film's flight and combat language, not just coverage. Animatic v4 runs 194 shots.

Stunt-coordination input on how many people can safely be suspended and directed at once on the planned truss.

Doctrine set: at most two rigged performers on camera; sequence choreography rewritten to it. A just-in-case bank of 20 background-agnostic mixin shots was added so the edit never lacks a connective beat.

Feedback that the trailer's world was seen from outside, never from inside the group.

A 12-shot Chronicle POV unit was added: direct-to-lens friend footage, mute rule (score carries), practical-led. Also, a fair-market camera-department range replaced an under-market one before the crew blast went out.

Two shoot targets lapsed with no stage, coverage, or DP locked.

A one-day sprint with timed steps and an evening go/no-go replaced the rolling plan; every outward artifact was reissued the same day.

The first DP quote came in well above the plan.

The package was trimmed and the shot list protected; the ceiling decision was made on the numbers rather than by cutting coverage.

The RenderCon Abundance panel stated the sensibility out loud: hopeful, compelling, an abundant future you want to live in; personal origin; human authorship; technology as partner.

The treatment and personal statement were QA'd against that list; the public landing page was written to it.

The story had lived privately since middle school.

The Building LEOM daily series launched with a never-miss-two-days rule and a canon-safety rule: process public, twists private.
