How we build the investor film in CapCut. You drop the recorded VO MP3 in as the spine, then drag the clips below onto each beat. Every path is real and relative to your AFFIRMOLOGY folder. The demo-site intro (easing-in + Joe and Monika film) is a separate web build, not this. No em dashes anywhere.

"Ken Burns" = slow push/pan on a still. "Boomerang" = play forward then reverse so a short clip fills a long line (CapCut: duplicate clip, reverse the copy, butt them together).
PART A, the handoff
- A1 Story hold: Brand/Affirmology Joe and Monika Video.mp4 (the full film opens the investor video too; or just its final still beat if you already showed the film in the demo). Let it resolve, a beat of silence.
- A2 Rise: VEK/grand_bridge/soul_formation_3d_v1.mp4 then VEK/grand_bridge/cosmos_travel_bed_10s.mp4. VO A2.
- A3 Title: affirmology_NAMEMORPH_GOLD_buildON.mp4 over the cosmos, then drop title-overlay-soulsong-16x9.png (or overlay_soulsong_subtitle.mov) on V2. (I am delivering this pre-composited, see Step 4.)
- A4 Turn: VEK/grand_bridge/hero_constellation_lightup_v3.mp4. VO A4.
PART B, the pitch

- B5 Proof: Brand/Jeff phone master wealth reading maya.PNG (Ken Burns) then Brand/photos/vision/2_oracle_chat_audio.png, 3_new_guide_lakshmi.png, into Brand/photos/video/plate-use-case-constellation.mp4. SUPER: "It is built."
- B6 Science: Brand/photos/video/plate-science-pathway-strengthening.mp4 then plate-heart-coherence-listening.mp4. SUPER: "Not woo. Neuroscience, honestly." (OPTIONAL CUT for short version.)
- B7 Council/moat: Brand/photos/video/Affirmology_CouncilConstellation_v1.mp4. SUPER: "25,570 records. A methodology that improves itself."
- B8 Market: Brand/photos/video/plate-market-two-worlds-bridge.mp4. SUPER card: CALM, HEADSPACE, CO-STAR (dim) then AFFIRMOLOGY (ignites). (Remotion)
- B9 Faena: Brand/ultimatewellnes/IMG_9487.PNG, then faena_1.jpg, faena_2.jpg, faena_3.jpg, then demo-faena-booth-lounge.mp4 (when generated). Leave a 4s gap labeled JEFF FAENA FOOTAGE for your real clips. SUPER: "Six hundred ideal clients. We are the MCs."

SUPER strip: "Private beta now. Journey finalized from feedback. Public launch [DATE]." (Remotion)
- B13 Ask/close: Brand/photos/video/plate-future-walk-into-light.mp4 into VEK/grand_bridge/TITLE_SYSTEM/OUTRO_shine_AFFIRMOLOGY.mp4. End card SUPER: logo, "Affirmations + Astrology + AI", jeff@jeffparker.love.
- B14 Founder closing: your to-camera clip (record), or the Jeff and Sol founder video when it lands.
Finished MP4s, gold-on-emerald, sized 1920x1080, so you just drag them onto V2 (or V1): 1. TITLE SEQUENCE, pre-composited: cosmos bed + NAMEMORPH GOLD build-on + "The truth of you, sung back to you." + "Upgrade Your Subconscious Operating System." (the morphing title bar with subtext, exactly what you liked). I render this from the existing alpha assets, no generation cost. 2. END CARD: OUTRO shine + the email line. 3. Remotion text cards with transparent background (or on emerald): the North Star line, IDENTIFY/ALIGN/TRANSCEND, the five-system supers, the CALM/HEADSPACE/CO-STAR to AFFIRMOLOGY comparison, the pricing ladder, the stat supers (25,570 records / 98% margin / 600 ideal clients), and the State-of-project timeline strip. Simple emotional lower-thirds (one gold sentence) you can also just type in CapCut with the brand fonts, your call which you want pre-built.
1920x1080, H.264, 30 fps, high bitrate (or ProRes if you want headroom). Then we cut a 9x16 vertical using the -vertical / -9x16 asset variants where they exist.
Atlas_Orrery_Boomerang_v1.mp4 is already a ping-pong if you want the astrolabe look anywhere.
