Steady faces, shots that breathe, cleaner words

What's in every reel

• Faces. Every on-camera second is measured, the same way as the B-roll: shake, and the face steady in frame. Shaky stretches went under B-roll. The faces are now tighter medium shots. The build refuses anything that fails.
• B-roll. 2–3.5 s per shot instead of 1 s. New from your April shoot: the stilts capsule at dusk, the bedroom, the skylight reveal, their HQ. Sea, desert and garden from their own reel.
• Voices. A voice check found 3 spots where someone else talked under an answer. All three are gone: the 'Okay' before Rani's 'I swear', the 'Thank you' over Fawaz's «برافو عليك», and the 'Yeah, that's a good one' over Rani's 'Beach'.
• Ending. Theirs, slower: three shots of two beats each, Ai.Beyot's logo, the white card.

1 · Matthew Hoag

Interstellar Plus · the festival, life on tour, a feeling of home

What changed

• Your note (v12). More of the capsule's inside, its features on his words: the room with its big window on 'hotel rooms', the kitchen sink on 'anything that can resemble home', the open glass roof on 'an hour or two or three'. The card on 'modern apartment' is the room by the window.
• Kept from v8. Same words, same music. His face stays on the hook, the 150 shows, 'a very hardcore one' and the last line.

2 · Rani Kalan

Starlight's project manager · the call to Lebanon

What changed

• Your Matthew note (v8). 'I'm in one of the capsules' → inside one: the room, its big window. 'A high-end apartment' → its kitchen, the black tap and sink (was the girl standing).
• Kept from v6. Same words, same faces, the skylight on 'a finishing like this', the crane, the 24 H.

3 · Mohamed Fawaz

Production manager · small caravans in Lebanon

What changed

• Your Matthew note (v10). 'The interior is very nice' → its kitchen (was the girl sitting). «تحط العفش وأنا أرتاح» → one take: she leans back, the camera finds the big window and the open roof.
• Kept from v6. Same words. The 'Thank you' voice stays out. The spray painting, the crane, the skylight on the LED.

4 · Abu Bakr

Production · the first lounge like this

What changed

• Your Matthew note (v8). «الديزاين المعمول فيه روشن» → the inside now: the room, the big window, the open roof (was the outside).
• Kept from v6. Same words; the capsule at dusk on 'legendary' and 'like you're in space', the sea.

5 · Mohammed Hazem

CEO · rebuilt from his cleanest sentences

What changed

• Your Matthew note (v11). A small card of the kitchen beside him on «كأنك قاعد في بيت… serviced apartment». He stays on camera for his hook.
• Story. First official event in Egypt, Exit → people picture a plain box, but here the curves, the glass, the panoramic view → the sea, the desert, a guest house → inside, the artist hears nothing → «أول ما يخلص الـ set بتاعته… مش عاوز يطلع تاني».

6 · Everyone

Four questions · Mohammed last

What changed

• Questions. Your first reaction? · Ever seen a lounge like this? · Three words? · Where would you put one?
• Ending. Mohammed: «كان نفسي أحط الكابسولز بتاعتنا قدام الأهرامات… I hope one day… في كل حتة في العالم». The checkbook is gone.
• Out. 'Would you sleep here?' (Matthew's camera shakes on his 'Yes'), Rani's three words (shaky, and the 'sexy' joke), Rani's 'Beach' (someone talking over it).

Your calls

• Older versions. Last night's six (v4, and v2 for Fawaz and Abu Bakr) stay on your Desktop. Nothing was overwritten.
• Waiting on you. Internet logos and festival footage (Starlight, EXIT, Interstellar Plus, Ai.Beyot's official logo). Nothing is downloaded until you say yes.
• Names. Is the bald production man Abu Bakr Ibrahim? The card says so until you correct it.
• Nothing posted. Nothing is posted or in the Content System, and no credits were spent.
