No on-screen label is needed. --- ## Edit and rights notes (SV-A04, SV-E07, AL-10) - Both hosts' flyers are shown in full with the hosts' permission (Ty, Oct 25). Event facts are copied from the two flyers (incoming/1000012968.png, 1000012971.jpg). The Matchata credit appears only in small text on Reel A's end card. - Images are the owner's own Instagram images (ig-images-2026-10-25: #08, 10, 15, 16, 17, 18, 23, 27, 28, 29). The B&W porch shoot (#01) is not used, so no photo credit is needed. - Artlist image-to-video: Seedance 1.5 Pro, 480p, 9:16, no audio. Clip A comes from #17 (4 s, 160 cr) and is used 0-2.6 s, slowed to 2.9 s. Clip B comes from #23 (5 s, 200 cr) and is used 0-1.7 s, slowed to 2.7 s. The later frames were cut because the face drifted and the cup covered the lettering. - Music (Artlist catalog; ~~downloaded under our plan, not watermarked~~ **Correction (Oct 27, CoS e-29a4aa59):** these were Artlist **watermarked previews**, not licensed files. The spoken tag is in every render v1-v4 (A: "...reimagined" at 0 s and "Artlist.io" at 29.0 s in v4; B: "Music licensing reimagined" at 12.8 s in v3, 15.8 s in v4), found by handbook_qc's speech-in-music check (faster-whisper on the mix + HDemucs vocal stem). v1-v4 must not be posted.): A "Moonlit Mischief" by Adam Dib, from 0:31.3. B "Crooked Clock" by Kari Steinert, from 1:57.8. - Build: /home/retro/work/vrdc4/build.py (python3 build.py A|B). Contact sheets: out/*-contact.jpg. --- ## v2 (Ty edit 1, Oct 27 2026): AI footage removed (YT-B01, YT-B08, FB-03, SV-E05, AL-10) - Ty: no AI video where a real person appears. Both Artlist image-to-video hooks are replaced with the ORIGINAL owner stills: A 0-2.933 s = IG #17 (burgundy crewneck, front door), B 0-2.700 s = IG #23 (grey "Fall Girl" crewneck, cafe). Move = gentle eased slow push (A 5 %, B 4 %), uniform scale only, no warping or morphing. Same text layers, fonts, positions, animation, timing and music. - B framing: the still's face sits lower than the AI clip's did, so the 9:16 window starts at the top of her hair to keep the face clear above the hook text (VH-08, SV-B05). The teacup sits behind the scrim, as it did in v1. - Every frame after the hook (A 614, B 605) and every audio stream is bit-identical to v1 (verified by framemd5 and packet md5). Build: build_v2_hook.py (re-renders the hook only and stream-copies the rest of v1). Fonts are bundled in fonts/ (Montserrat, Playfair Display; OFL). - No AI-generated footage remains in either reel. Caption copy is unchanged. - Files: vrc-market-reel-{A,B}-v2.mp4 (48 kHz master), -v2-ig.mp4 (44.1 kHz audio, same picture), -v2[-ig]-contact.jpg (0.5 s tiles, cyan = house safe zone). QC: qc-v2.md. --- ## v3 (Ty edit list 2, Oct 27 2026): text clears every face; owner's 6 new images added (SV-E08, VH-08, SV-B05, YT-B01) - Files: vrc-market-reel-{A,B}-v3.mp4 (48 kHz master), -v3-ig.mp4 (44.1 kHz), -v3-contact.jpg, -v3-faces-qc.jpg. QC, EDL and ledger: qc-v3.md. Build: build_v3.py. - Reel A caption: unchanged. - Reel B caption: B now has six looks, so the question line changes to: "Which look is yours: 01 to 06? Thanks to the market hosts for having us!" The rest is unchanged. --- ## v4 (CoS rulings e-37d8e0b8, Oct 27 2026): v3 + card reading speed (SV-E08, SV-C04) - Files: vrc-market-reel-{A,B}-v4.mp4 (48 kHz master), -v4-ig.mp4 (44.1 kHz), -v4-contact.jpg, -v4-faces-qc.jpg. QC, cps table and EDL: qc-v4.md. Build: build_v4.py. - Event cards held to about 20 cps, and the end cards held longer, with the same words. A 31.2 s, B 30.1 s. B's music starts one bar earlier (1:55.09), so the track's own ending falls under the final card. - Post captions: same as v3 (A unchanged; B "Which look is yours: 01 to 06? ..."). --- ## v5 (CoS e-a694e988 / e-45b43a54 / e-d6f77d09, Oct 28 2026): full rebuild, motion graphics, Pixabay bed - Files: v5/vrc-market-reel-{A,B}-v5.mp4 (30.5 s each), with contact sheets. README, EDL, definition ledger and QC: v5/README.md. - The flyers are rebuilt as motion-graphic cards from the same facts, word for word. No flyer pixels or v1-v4 frames are used. - Music: Pixabay 171666 "Ghosts of the Past" (melodyayresgriffiths), Pixabay Content License; no Artlist audio. - Post captions: same as v4 (A unchanged; B "Which look is yours: 01 to 06? ..."). - A is on HOLD for a listen at 15.5-16.2 s (handbook_qc speech-gate FAIL on the vocal stem; evidence of a whisper hallucination is in v5/README.md). --- ## v5.1 (CoS e-27989964 / Editor gate e-09c5c677, Oct 28 2026): text-only re-render of v5 - Files: v5.1/vrc-market-reel-{A,B}-v5.1.mp4 (+ -ig), contact sheets, MD5SUMS, SHA256SUMS. README and QC: v5.1/README.md. v5/ is unchanged. - Same picture, same bed, same mix (the v5 AAC stream is copied bit for bit). Only on-screen text changed, plus the end-card print strip moved up. - A end card: the Editor's 9 rows (163 chars, 20.4 cps). B final card: "Find our booth". On-screen dashes are hyphens. - Post captions: same as v5. B's try-on line is unchanged until the owner answers through Ty. - Before posting, both reels: if any of the model photos in this reel were made with AI, turn on Instagram's AI label for the reel (Facebook: Add AI info). No on-screen label is needed. --- ## v5.2 (CoS e-0ffc3ad2 / Editor delta gate e-7a730cab, Oct 28 2026): placement re-render of v5.1, centred on x 540 - Files: v5.2/vrc-market-reel-{A,B}-v5.2.mp4 (+ -ig), contact sheets, MD5SUMS, SHA256SUMS. README and QC: v5.2/README.md. v5/ and v5.1/ are unchanged. - No word changes on screen. Every card in both reels is now centred on the frame (x 540), and every settled text and picture box sits inside x 180-900. Same bed, same mix (the v5 AAC stream is copied bit for bit). - Post captions: the headings above now name the v5.2 files; B's question line reads "01 to 06" (B shows LOOK 01 to 06); each caption has a Facebook variant with 3 hashtags (FB-08). Instagram hashtag guidance is not verified (keep the 5-tag version or use the 3-tag one). B's try-on line is unchanged until the owner answers through Ty.
