# Silent cutaway, live proof — rebuild sheet

A 13.2s device demo with no on-screen text anywhere: a 3D cross-section shows the mechanism working under the surface, then real treatment footage takes over and a before/after photo pair is pasted into the live frame. 954,151 views · 6,854 likes · by zemits.aesthetics.

**Why it works**
The mechanism is *shown happening* instead of claimed — two identical cutaway frames where the only thing that changes is the result, so the viewer reads cause rather than marketing. Then the live footage and the pasted before/after answer the question the render can't: that this is a real thing done to a real person.

**The beats**

| Time | What happens | On-screen text |
|---|---|---|
| 1.06s | Extreme macro on the clear conical tip pressed to skin, violet/blue glow around its rim; a rendered cross-section of the surface sits inside the cone | none |
| 3.18s | Full-frame 3D cross-section on a dark navy field — surface, dermis, fat layer. The wand hovers above, violet arcs jumping to the surface. The follicle is empty | none |
| 5.29s | Identical framing. A thick hair now grows from the follicle, its base picked out in red vessels. Nothing else in frame changed | none |
| 7.41s | Live handheld close on a temple and hairline, fair hair; the device tip on the scalp with a pink light inside it. Gloved hand and dark drape at frame right | none |
| 9.53s | Live footage of the side of a head; a white-bordered two-panel photo composited into the middle of frame — thinning hairline on the left, fuller on the right | none |
| 11.64s | Live extreme macro of the tip on the scalp at the hairline, pink light in the tip, gloved hand behind | none |

**What carries the value**
The rendered cross-section — an empty follicle that visibly sprouts a hair under the device while the frame holds perfectly still. The real before/after pair at 9.53s is what cashes it; without that photo the render is just an animation.

**Shoot it**
Half of this cannot be shot, and that has to be said plainly: beats 1–3 are a 3D render, not footage. What a person with a phone can shoot is beats 4–6 and the proof photo.

- **Camera:** close handheld, right down at the contact point, drifting with the hands. No tripod, no cuts inside a beat, no wide establishing shot. The tighter the better — the last beat is a macro where the tip fills a third of the frame.
- **Light:** whatever the treatment room has. The frames show a dim room with a pale blurred wall behind, and the only bright thing is the light inside the device tip. Do not add a key light; the glow needs the room dark around it.
- **Wardrobe:** nothing on camera except a dark glove and a dark drape. No face, no operator, no personality — the frames never show a full face at any beat.
- **The proof photo:** two panels, side by side, white border, hard-composited over the live footage at around 70% of the way through. The frames carry no caption on it — no dates, no labels, no "before/after". It is left to read on its own.
- **Text:** none. At any beat. The whole explanation lives in the post caption.

Two things the frames do not show, so don't assume them: whether there is voiceover or music (frames can't tell you), and whether any text appears in the ~2s gaps between the sampled beats. Everything above is what six stills can prove.

**Or generate it**
The beat to generate is 5.29s — the payoff of the cutaway.

```
vertical 9:16 photoreal 3D cross-section render of {SUBJECT}, cut away to show
the surface layer, the structure beneath it and the fatty layer at the base, set
against a flat dark navy field; {PRODUCT} held just above the surface at the top
of frame, fine violet electrical arcs jumping from its tip down to the surface;
the single treated structure at the centre of the cutaway is fully formed and its
base picked out in red vessels; even clean render light, no camera perspective
change, no on-screen text
```

*Motion:* camera absolutely locked — identical framing to the previous beat, generated from the same seed — with nothing moving but the violet arcs and the treated structure filling in inside the cutaway.

*Text overlay:* none. This format runs with no on-screen text at any beat; the claim stays in the post caption — `"{RESULT} with {MECHANISM}"` followed by the how-it-works paragraph.
