A clear purpose for the sequence

Identify the action and information the audience needs for one scene or emotional turn.

Shot order follows the story

Describe whether to establish the setting, show the action, or begin with a reaction.

Specific pacing decisions

Explain where to pause, what to shorten, and when the turn should arrive.

Action and reaction together

Review both the event and its emotional effect so the scene feels connected.

Story-focused preview review

Compare the demo preview and task status with the narrative goal before refining the direction.

Versions with project context

Keep direction, references, and previews together so the relevant version is easy to find.

The first episode’s opening
