The Scene 1 hook clip, identity-anchored to the locked presenter reference and lip-synced to the Sunny recording, plus the complete master narration set for the film. Approve both before any B-roll is generated at scale.
Test clip — Scene 1 hook (8s, 9:16)
She glances down at the tribute book, then to camera: "This is Ollie's story…" — the emotional hook and product both established within the first seconds.
Locked presenter reference

Every presenter clip (shots 1, 7, 13) generates image-to-video from this exact still — face, wardrobe, and setting must remain consistent across the film.
"This is Ollie's story. He was my best friend for almost fourteen years. And when I lost him, I knew I wanted to remember more than just his pictures."
"Then I found Story Vault."
"I still miss him every day. But now, I have something beautiful that keeps his story close."
"Ollie had this funny little habit of following me everywhere. He had his favorite spot on the couch, and somehow, he always knew when I needed him."
"I started sharing all those little memories about Ollie. His personality, his funny habits, and the moments that made him so special."
"When I saw his story come together, it brought back so many wonderful memories. It wasn't just a book of photographs. It was everything that made Ollie, Ollie."
Dialogue lines drive presenter lip-sync clips; VO lines play over muted memory and product B-roll, timed to the shot sequence. Final scene lengths follow these natural speech durations — dialogue is never accelerated or cut.
