FILMING Choose one real, explainable cue detail: motif, interval, instrumentation, register, rhythmic pattern, or silence. Confirm the detail from the score before filming. Record a clean audio example of the isolated idea and the full moment under picture or an approved still.
EDITING 0:00–0:03: show the moment/still or score detail. Text: “listen to this.” 0:03–0:09: play the isolated motif/interval/instrumental colour. Point to it on the score or MIDI roll. 0:09–0:15: explain: “I used [real detail] here because [the actual dramatic function].” 0:15–0:23: play the full cue/moment. Avoid adding a separate music bed. 0:23–0:28: return to camera: “That tiny choice is doing more work than it looks like.” 0:28–0:33: title card: “The Pinch premieres August 15 in Orlando.” 0:33–0:35: “Want more score breakdowns? Comment ‘breakdown.’” Add [ticket/event link] only if confirmed.
