PetBook Tribute CX Promo — Gate 1: Preproduction

"Ollie's Story — A Life Full of Love" — an intimate documentary-style customer-experience promo for PetBook Tribute. A woman shares how she honored her beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniel with a personalized tribute book: We don't just remember what our pets looked like. We remember who they were. Nothing is generated before this gate is approved.

Warm, natural-looking woman early 50s, shoulder-length brown hair with subtle gray, cream knit sweater, seated on a cream sofa in a softly lit living room with framed Ollie photographs behind her.

Ollie reference (locked identity)

Ollie reference

Blenheim Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, chestnut-and-white coat, chestnut markings around his long silky ears and eyes, large expressive brown eyes, gentle expression with slight graying at the muzzle (his later years). Every memory clip anchors to this identity.

Positioning

We don't just remember what our pets looked like. We remember who they were.

The emotional arc moves from reflection to warm remembrance, then to gratitude and a lasting sense of connection — never funeral or memorial symbolism, never theatrical grief. The viewer should finish thinking "I have a pet whose story deserves to be remembered like that."

Closing brand message: "Their Love Lives On. So Should Their Story." with "Create Your PetBook Tribute" CTA and storivaultapp.com.

Final scene lengths follow the narration's natural speech; dialogue is never accelerated or cut. Presenter and memory clips are generated image-to-video from the locked stills (identity anchoring). All critical text, faces, and product demos stay in the central safe area.

Audio plan

  • Presenter dialogue (lip-sync) — shots 1, 7, and 13: the on-camera interview lines, generated with the locked 'sunny' voice.
  • s2 (over shots 2–6) — "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."
  • s3b (over shot 8) — "I started sharing all those little memories about Ollie — his personality, his funny habits, and the moments that made him so special."
  • s4 (over shots 9–12) — "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."

Warm, natural female voice with realistic conversational pacing and gentle pauses at emotionally significant moments. Music: the PetBook Tribute "Raindrops" bed (same brand family, reflective energy, low volume) building to a gentle, uplifting resolution at the product reveal. Only the music bed, narration VO, and presenter dialogue play — all memory B-roll clips are muted.
