App reveal from a button: zoom out of a send button into the app. A send button that fills the frame, and the app that comes out of it. The shot opens inside the button — the arrow alone, forty times life size, still turned — and the camera falls back off it onto a prompt that is being typed at seventy-nine characters a second. A pointer arrives edge-on to the lens, rotates flat as it lands, presses, and holds. Then a hard cut, and the app the prompt asked for is already there: drawing itself in block by block, backing off into the frame, and being worked on by people who are not you — two presence labels pop, the wordmark is selected and re-set in a serif, the artwork in the grid is swapped. The camera in each half is a measured table: act one is a pure scale about the send button's centre, which is the one thing on screen that never moves, and act two is read off the workspace's left edge and the ratio of its two vertical sides, which is what recovers a turn from a flat recording. The field's blob geometry was fitted to the reference's own corner samples rather than guessed.
