Static locked medium shot. The subject from the reference photo sits on a stool in a cozy, sunlit room, holding an acoustic guitar. 0-2s she looks directly at the camera, smiles warmly, and adjusts her grip on the neck of the guitar to prepare for a performance. 2-6s she begins strumming a lively, rhythmic chord progression, tapping her foot to the beat, swaying her head, and mouthing the lyrics. 6-8s as she plays, physical, glowing golden musical notes suddenly begin to float up out of the guitar's sound hole like magical bubbles. She stops strumming, her eyes widening in wonder as she watches them rise around her face. 8-10s she reaches out to playfully pop one of the glowing notes with her index finger; it bursts into golden sparkles, and she giggles delightfully at the camera. Warm indie folk acoustic guitar track, gentle room tone. Face, hair, and outfit remain unchanged.
