Selfie-stick tracking shot. The subject from the reference photo performs a reality-bending visual effect. 0-2s she stands in front of a boring grey wall, shakes her head in disapproval, and points a thumb at the plain background. 2-6s she reaches her hand up, physically pinches the empty air, and pulls downward with force, peeling the grey background away like a giant sheet of torn wallpaper to reveal a sprawling, glowing cyberpunk city behind it. 6-8s vibrant neon lights from the new city immediately cast colorful reflections on her face; she gasps in awe, her eyes widening as she looks around the new environment. 8-10s she turns back to the camera, gives a huge excited smile, and gestures 'welcome' with both arms as the neon lights pulse. Synthwave music bed, heavy tearing paper sound effect. Face, hair, and outfit remain unchanged.
