Retake review — shots 13 & 14

Sophie's Story — Shot 13 & 14 Retakes

Three replacement takes for each flagged shot. Shot 13 keeps the story page either in a clean defocused blur or with short real legible text, each from a different camera angle. Shot 14 locks the printed photo on the book page to Sophie's identity — never the cover image, never a different dog — with the d2 dialogue baked in.

Shot 13 — interior spread retakes

The current take's story page shows garbled pseudo-text. Every retake keeps Sophie's photo page sharp and removes the garble — via blur and angle (13-A, 13-B) or real, legible text (13-C).

Shot 14 — closing presenter retakes

The current take's book shows the wrong dog on the page and the page reads like the cover. Every retake shows an open interior spread with Sophie's printed photo locked to her reference, and carries the baked d2 lip-sync: "I grew up with Sophie. And now, I'll always have her story.". Options 14-D, 14-E and 14-F are the presenter-continuity retakes — generated directly from the locked presenter reference so her face, hair, sweater and sofa match the rest of the clip set exactly.

Locked identity references

Every retake was generated image-to-image from these locked references; the printed Sophie on any book page must match the dog here.

Review checklist

  • Shot 13: no garbled or squiggle text anywhere in frame — the story page is either cleanly blurred or shows the legible "SOPHIE — A life full of love." line
  • Shot 14: the printed photo on the open page is Sophie — black-and-white Shih Tzu, black ears, white muzzle and chest — and the page reads as an interior spread, not the cover
  • Shot 14: d2 lip-sync is accurate and the presenter matches the locked reference

Picked — shot 13: 13-C (Top-down, real legible text) · shot 14: 14-E (High three-quarter, book lifted to camera). Say the word and the picks are wired into Gate 3 and the Gate 4 assembly.
