@image 1 as model, @image 2 as exact product.
Keep the product identical to @image 2 — same natural paper braid, wide brim, charcoal grosgrain band
— in every frame.
CRITICAL: never show the hat being put on or taken off her head. Beat 1 has no hat; from beat 4 onward
it is already worn. All state changes happen on hard cuts. Her hair is short coily twists pushed back
in every beat — do not change its length or texture.
0:00–0:03 — Front-camera selfie at arm's length on a bright terrace, no hat, squinting hard into the
sun with a hand shielding her eyes. Straight to camera: "Three summers. Every hat I've flown with came
home folded in half."
0:03–0:06 — Hard cut to a tighter selfie, still no hat. She holds the hat up at chest height, well
away from her head, and turns it once so the brim and the band read. "This one is meant to be
crushed. That's the entire point of it."
0:06–0:09 — Hard cut. Phone propped, locked-off static shot down onto a table: the hat sits open, a
hand presses it flat until the crown collapses and the brim folds under, holds for a beat, then lifts
away — the hat springing back open to full shape with no crease line remaining. Hard cut, same propped
framing, macro on the brim edge where the fold was: weave intact, unbroken. No face. No dialogue.
Only the soft crackle of braid and outdoor ambience.
0:09–0:12 — Front-camera selfie framed identically to the opening beat, hat now on, brim throwing a
clean shadow across her face, eyes fully open and not squinting. She glances up at the brim, then at
the lens: "Two flights and a beach bag. It came out like this."
0:12–0:15 — Front-camera selfie, slightly tighter, hat worn with the brim edge crossing the upper
frame in focus. Warm, level: "The brim's floppier than the photos make it look. That's the trade for
packing flat. Go have a look."
Style: authentic creator selfie UGC, handheld front camera with visible micro-shake for the talking
beats, locked-off propped insert for the proof, hard cuts, hard midday sunlight, real ambient audio
only. Beat 4 must match the camera position and framing of beat 1 exactly. No on-screen text, no
captions, no subtitles, no music.
