**CLIP 001 - 12 SECONDS**
-[Final shot: Black screen, single blinking cursor]
+EXTREME CLOSE-UP on weathered hands threading copper wire through a circuit board in a dimly lit basement workshop. Fingers move with practiced precision, solder smoke curling upward into a single hanging work light that casts harsh shadows across the workbench. Camera SLOWLY PULLS BACK to reveal walls covered in schematic diagrams and flickering monitors displaying cascading code. The subject—a figure in a dark hoodie, face obscured—works in focused silence. Ambient light flickers cool blue from screens, contrasting warm orange from the soldering iron. Low-angle shot emphasizes isolation and obsessive dedication. Mood: tense, secretive, foreboding. The hum of cooling fans and distant rain against basement windows creates atmospheric dread.
