1	Don't buy this if you think your teen will magically wake themselves in college.	narrator	Dorm-room, bright late morning: Ryan, 16, asleep in a narrow dorm bed, sunlight across his face, a phone on the floor lit and buzzing, the second bed across the room empty and made.
2	Right now you're waking him up, in college nobody is.	narrator	Split feeling in one cut: hallway at home, Mom, early 40s, hand on Ryan's shoulder in his bed, coffee in the other hand; then the dorm-room door standing open onto an empty corridor of closed doors, nobody coming.
3	They sleep through the first 8 a.m. lecture, then the next one, then they're dropped from class.	narrator	Lecture-hall, morning: rows of seats filling, one seat empty in the middle. Then a second morning, same empty seat. Then a plain envelope slid under the dorm-room door, blank, no words.
4	By Thanksgiving they're home on probation, and that thirty-five thousand dollar tuition is gone.	narrator	Kitchen at home, grey November light: Ryan sitting at the table in his hoodie with a duffel bag by the chair, Mom standing with her arms crossed, a blank letter on the table between them. Nobody talking.
5	You haven't failed as a parent, and they aren't lazy.	narrator	Hallway: Mom leaning on Ryan's doorframe looking at him asleep, tired but soft-faced, not angry. Morning light between them.
6	It's just that right now, the only alarm that has ever worked on them is you.	narrator	Teen-room, dawn: Mom's hand rests on Ryan's shoulder and his eyes crack open; on the nightstand a phone alarm flashes with nobody reacting to it. She is the only alarm in the room.
7	Here is what sleep scientists discovered is actually happening:	narrator · shared	Close on sleeping Ryan's face on the pillow at night, eyes moving under the lids. Camera slowly pushes in. Soft moonlight, calm, a hint of the transparent-head cross-section beginning to glow.
8	While developing, a teenager's brain actively filters out repetitive sounds to protect their sleep.	narrator · shared	Cross-section view: the inside of Ryan's head shown as if transparent, a soft glowing brain pulsing slow and warm; faint sound ripples arrive at the ear and a soft shield of light dims them before they reach the brain. No words, no labels.
9	When morning alarms go off, their brain just treats it as background noise.	narrator · shared	Morning. The phone alarm on the nightstand rattles and flashes, sound-wave ripples spreading across the teen-room. They reach Ryan's ear and dissolve into faint grey dust. He does not stir, blanket to his chin.
10	But direct physical touch bypasses that filter entirely.	narrator · shared	A hand enters frame from the right and rests on Ryan's shoulder. A warm ring of light spreads from the touch across his shoulder and neck and straight up into the glowing brain. His eyebrows twitch for the first time.
11	That's why six phone alarms fail, but the second your hand touches them, they move.	narrator · shared	Wide teen-room: six phone alarms lined up on the nightstand and desk all flashing and rattling, Ryan asleep through it. Mom, early 40s, leans in and touches his shoulder; his eyes crack open and he groans.
12	The problem is that you aren't going to be in their dorm room.	narrator · shared	Dorm-room, early morning: Ryan asleep in the narrow dorm bed, the door standing open onto an empty corridor of plain walls and closed doors. Nobody is coming. Mom is not in this frame.
13	And shaking them awake just shocks their body, leaving them exhausted before the day even starts.	narrator · shared	Teen-room: Mom shakes Ryan by both shoulders. He jolts upright, hair wild, eyes unfocused, then slumps hunched on the edge of the bed rubbing his face, a foggy grey haze drawn around his head.
14	If you're thinking a smartwatch or Fitbit could help, their tiny vibrations were designed for notifications, not for waking a heavy sleeper.	narrator · shared	Close on Ryan's wrist on the pillow wearing a chunky smartwatch with a plain glowing screen, buzzing weakly with tiny motion lines. His face beside it stays asleep. Mom's skeptical face in the doorway behind.
15	Which is why thousands of parents have switched their teens to DawnBands.	narrator (product reveal) · product · shared	Hero reveal: the band alone on a clean surface in soft morning light, front and center, filling the frame: matte black silicone wristband, fine diagonal ribbing, flat top face with small white LED digits, buckle strap. Nothing else in frame.
16	It's engineered specifically for heavy sleepers, using a gradual physical pulse that wakes their body naturally.	narrator (product) · product · shared	Dawn light. Close on the band on Ryan's sleeping wrist on the pillow: soft motion lines around the band grow bigger and denser in three steps, LED digits lit, the wrist twitches, his fingers curl, his face starts to frown awake.
17	You set the alarm directly on the band.	narrator (product) · product · shared	Close on Ryan's own hands holding the band at his desk in the teen-room, thumb pressing the flat top face; the small white LED digits light up. Evening lamp light. Mom not in frame.
18	No phones or distracting apps.	narrator (product) · product · shared	Ryan's phone lies face down on the desk, dark and ignored. Beside it the band sits with its LED digits glowing. Ryan's hand slides the phone further away.
19	And because it weighs less than a watch, most teens forget they're even wearing it.	narrator (product) · shared	Close on Ryan buckling the thin band around his wrist, the silicone strap bending softly, pin sliding into a hole. He rests the wrist on the pillow and settles under the blanket, lights low, not looking at it.
20	By Day 7, you stop dragging them out of bed.	narrator · product · shared	Mom in the hallway walking toward Ryan's door with her coffee, unhurried. Inside, through the open door, Ryan is already sitting up on the bed, the band on his wrist, rubbing his eyes.
21	The band pulses on their wrist, and they're up before you reach their door.	narrator (product) · product · shared	Low camera at floor level: Ryan's bare feet land on the rug beside the bed, the band visible on his wrist. Behind them, through the doorway, Mom is only halfway down the hallway, coffee in hand.
22	By Day 14, you don't even check their room.	narrator · shared	Mom in the kitchen at the counter making lunch, relaxed shoulders, back to the hallway. Ryan's door down the hall stands open and empty, bed already rumpled.
23	They're dressed and on their own schedule before you've called their name.	narrator · shared	Ryan walks into the kitchen fully dressed, hoodie and backpack, band on his wrist, grabbing toast. Mom turns from the counter, surprised and smiling.
24	By Day 30, this is just how mornings work now.	narrator · shared	Bright ordinary morning: the kitchen table with two plates, sunlight, Mom pouring coffee, Ryan sliding into his chair with wet hair, both relaxed. The wall clock has a blank face.
25	They set their own alarm before bed.	narrator (product) · product · shared	Night in the teen-room: Ryan in bed pressing the flat face of the band on his own wrist, LED digits lighting, then switching off the lamp. Mom is nowhere in frame.
26	And come move-in day, they're sitting in that first 8 a.m. lecture on time, all on their own.	narrator (product) · product · shared	Lecture-hall, 8 a.m., bright: Ryan awake and alert in a middle seat with his notebook open, the band on his wrist on the desk, the professor at the front, other students settling in. Nobody called him.
27	You can keep waking them until they move out, or try DawnBands risk-free for 60 nights.	narrator (CTA) · product · shared	Split feeling in one cut: the old morning, grey light, Mom at Ryan's bedside shaking his shoulder; then the dorm-room at dawn, Ryan awake and sitting up on his own with the band on his wrist, LED digits lit, sunlight.
28	They sell out often, so if you see it in stock, grab yours now.	narrator (CTA) · product · shared	Final hero: the band alone, front and center on a clean warm surface, matte black silicone, ribbing, LED digits lit, buckle strap curled. Soft morning light. No text, no logos.

| Beat | Scene | Start–End (s) | VO | Visual | Env | Transition-in |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 | 0.04–3.42 (3.4) | Don't buy this if you think your teen will magically wake themselves in college. | Ryan, 16, sprawled asleep in a narrow dorm bed, sunlight crossing his face, mouth slack. On the floor his phone glows and buzzes unanswered. The second bed across the room sits empty, made, untouched. Bright late morning stillness. | dorm-room | hard cut |
| 2 | 2 | 3.69–6.19 (2.5) | Right now you're waking him up, in college nobody is. | Split frame: Mom sits on Ryan's bed, hand resting on his shoulder, coffee mug in her other hand, face tender as she gently wakes him; he stirs sleepily, comforted. Beside it, a dorm-room door stands open onto an empty corridor of closed doors, silent and still, no one approaching, the space feeling abandoned. |  | hard cut |
| 3 | 3.1 | 6.46–7.77 (1.3) | They sleep through the first 8 a.m. | Lecture hall bathed in morning light: students stream in, dropping backpacks and settling into rows as quiet chatter fills the room. One seat in the middle row stays conspicuously empty while others fill in around it, nearby students throwing a faint uneasy glance at the gap. Camera holds on the emptiness. | lecture-hall | hard cut |
| 4 | 3.2 | 7.79–10.69 (2.9) | lecture, then the next one, then they're dropped from class. | A dorm-room door in a dim, empty hallway; a plain white envelope slides silently underneath it and stops halfway on the carpet, blank with no writing or markings. No one is visible, just the door and the stark envelope, the quiet space carrying a sense of cold, impersonal finality. | hallway | hard cut to a dim hallway outside a dorm-room door |
| 5 | 4 | 10.96–15.03 (4.1) | By Thanksgiving they're home on probation, and that thirty-five thousand dollar tuition is gone. | Ryan slumps at the kitchen table in his hoodie, duffel bag resting against the chair leg beside him. Mom stands across the table, arms crossed, looking down at a blank letter between them. Neither speaks. Grey November light through the window, tense silence filling the room. | kitchen | hard cut |
| 6 | 5 | 15.30–17.64 (2.3) | You haven't failed as a parent, and they aren't lazy. | Mom stands in a hallway, shoulder against Ryan's doorframe, looking through the open door at Ryan asleep in his bed. Her face is tired, eyes soft, mouth relaxed, no anger. Pale morning light falls across the hallway floor between them. | hallway | hard cut |
| 7 | 6 | 17.89–21.18 (3.3) | It's just that right now, the only alarm that has ever worked on them is you. | Mom's hand rests gently on Ryan's shoulder as his eyes crack open in the dim teen-room. On the nightstand behind them, a phone screen flashes silently with an alarm alert, unnoticed and unanswered. Her hand is the thing that wakes him. | teen-room | hard cut |
| 8 | 7 | 21.57–24.15 (2.6) | Here is what sleep scientists discovered is actually happening: | Ryan lies asleep on his pillow at night, eyes flicking rapidly beneath closed lids. The camera slowly pushes in on his calm, relaxed face, soft moonlight washing over his skin as a faint glow begins to outline a transparent cross-section within his head. |  | hard cut |
| 9 | 8 | 24.41–28.65 (4.2) | While developing, a teenager's brain actively filters out repetitive sounds to protect their sleep. | Cross-section view inside Ryan's head, skull rendered transparent, revealing a soft glowing brain pulsing slowly and warmly. Faint sound ripples travel toward his ear, meeting a translucent shield of light that dims them before they reach the brain, calm and undisturbed. |  | hard cut |
| 10 | 9 | 28.91–32.08 (3.2) | When morning alarms go off, their brain just treats it as background noise. | Ryan lies in bed under a blanket pulled to his chin, eyes shut, unmoving. On the nightstand his phone alarm rattles and flashes, sending grey sound-wave ripples rolling across the teen-room. The ripples reach his ear and dissolve into faint dust. His face stays slack, no reaction. | teen-room | hard cut |
| 11 | 10 | 32.33–35.14 (2.8) | But direct physical touch bypasses that filter entirely. | A hand enters from frame right and settles on Ryan's shoulder. Warm light rings outward from the touch, tracing up his neck into his glowing brain. His eyebrows twitch, the first flicker of expression crossing his face. |  | hard cut |
| 12 | 11 | 35.41–39.54 (4.1) | That's why six phone alarms fail, but the second your hand touches them, they move. | Wide teen-room: six phone alarms lined up on the nightstand and desk, all flashing and rattling. Ryan lies asleep in bed, undisturbed. Mom, early 40s, leans over and touches his shoulder. His eyes crack open, face groggy and annoyed, and he groans. | teen-room | hard cut |
| 13 | 12 | 39.81–41.90 (2.1) | The problem is that you aren't going to be in their dorm room. | Ryan lies asleep in a narrow dorm bed, blankets tangled, early morning light dim across the room. The door stands open onto an empty hallway lined with plain walls and closed doors. No one approaches; the corridor stays silent and still, empty. | dorm-room | hard cut |
| 14 | 13 | 42.15–46.82 (4.7) | And shaking them awake just shocks their body, leaving them exhausted before the day even starts. | Mom grips Ryan's shoulders and shakes him. He jolts upright in bed, hair wild, eyes unfocused and dazed. He slumps forward on the edge of the bed, rubbing his face with both hands, a foggy grey haze hanging around his head. | teen-room | hard cut |
| 15 | 14.1 | 47.04–49.26 (2.2) | If you're thinking a smartwatch or Fitbit could help, | Close on Ryan's wrist resting on the pillow, a chunky smartwatch with a plain glowing screen buzzing weakly, tiny motion lines rippling off its face. Ryan's face lies beside it, eyes shut, breathing slow, completely undisturbed by the vibration. | teen-room | hard cut |
| 16 | 14.2 | 49.32–53.69 (4.4) | their tiny vibrations were designed for notifications, not for waking a heavy sleeper. | The smartwatch keeps buzzing weakly on the pillow beside Ryan's motionless wrist as he stays deeply asleep. In the doorway behind him, Mom stands watching with a skeptical, unimpressed expression on her face. | teen-room | camera pulls back to reveal Mom in the doorway |
| 17 | 15 | 53.96–56.96 (3.0) | Which is why thousands of parents have switched their teens to DawnBands. | A matte black silicone wristband rests alone on a clean, bare surface, front and center, filling the frame. Soft morning light rakes across fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face with small white LED digits, and a buckle strap with a row of pin holes. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. |  | hard cut |
| 18 | 16 | 57.22–62.17 (4.9) | It's engineered specifically for heavy sleepers, using a gradual physical pulse that wakes their body naturally. | Close on Ryan's sleeping wrist resting on a pillow in dawn light. The black silicone band's soft motion lines pulse outward in three growing waves, LED digits glowing on its face. His wrist twitches, fingers curl, and his forehead creases into a waking frown. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. | dorm-room | hard cut |
| 19 | 17 | 62.44–63.91 (1.5) | You set the alarm directly on the band. | Ryan's hands hold the black wristband steady on his desk, thumb pressing down on the flat top face. Small white LED digits flicker on and glow across the band's surface. Warm evening lamp light spills over the desk in the dim room. His hands stay still, focused and deliberate. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. | teen-room | hard cut |
| 20 | 18 | 64.17–65.64 (1.5) | No phones or distracting apps. | A phone lies face down and dark on a wooden desk, ignored. Beside it, a black silicone wristband sits with its flat rectangular face glowing small white LED digits. A hand slides the phone further away across the desk, expression calm and unbothered. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. |  | hard cut |
| 21 | 19 | 65.85–69.37 (3.5) | And because it weighs less than a watch, most teens forget they're even wearing it. | Ryan sits on his bed in low light, buckling the thin silicone band around his wrist, the strap bending softly as the pin slides into a hole. He rests his wrist on the pillow and pulls the blanket up, eyes drifting shut, not looking at the band on his wrist. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. | dorm-room | hard cut |
| 22 | 20 | 69.64–71.45 (1.8) | By Day 7, you stop dragging them out of bed. | Mom walks down the hallway at an easy pace, coffee mug in hand, unhurried. Through Ryan's open bedroom door beyond her, he is already sitting up on the bed, wristband on his arm, rubbing his eyes awake on his own, calm. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. | hallway | hard cut |
| 23 | 21 | 71.72–75.11 (3.4) | The band pulses on their wrist, and they're up before you reach their door. | Low-angle shot: Ryan's bare feet land on the bedroom rug beside the bed, the matte black band pulsing faintly on their wrist. Through the open doorway behind them, Mom stands halfway down the hallway holding a coffee mug, alert, caught mid-step toward the room. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. | teen-room | hard cut |
| 24 | 22 | 75.36–77.33 (2.0) | By Day 14, you don't even check their room. | Mom stands at the kitchen counter making lunch, shoulders relaxed, back turned toward the hallway. Down the hall, Ryan's bedroom door stands open, the bed rumpled and empty. She keeps working calmly, unbothered, never turning her head toward the open doorway. | kitchen | hard cut |
| 25 | 23 | 77.60–80.12 (2.5) | They're dressed and on their own schedule before you've called their name. | Ryan strides into the kitchen already dressed in his hoodie, backpack slung over one shoulder, band visible on his wrist, grabbing a piece of toast off the counter without slowing down. Mom turns from the counter, eyebrows raised, a surprised smile spreading across her face. | kitchen | hard cut |
| 26 | 24 | 80.37–82.28 (1.9) | By Day 30, this is just how mornings work now. | Mom pours coffee at the sunlit kitchen table set with two plates while Ryan slides into his chair, hair still wet. Both move easily, unhurried and at ease, sunlight spilling across the table, the blank-faced wall clock hanging quietly on the wall behind them. | kitchen | hard cut |
| 27 | 25 | 82.55–83.96 (1.4) | They set their own alarm before bed. | Ryan lies in bed, pressing the flat top face of the black silicone wristband on his own wrist as small white LED digits light up, then reaches over and switches off the bedside lamp, expression calm and focused, room dim and quiet. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. | teen-room | hard cut |
| 28 | 26.1 | 84.22–86.69 (2.5) | And come move-in day, they're sitting in that first 8 a.m. | Ryan sits alert in a middle row of the lecture hall, notebook open before him, the wristband resting flat on the desk. The professor arranges notes at the front while other students file in and drop into seats around him. Ryan looks calm, awake, and ready. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. | lecture-hall | hard cut |
| 29 | 26.2 | 86.72–88.48 (1.8) | lecture on time, all on their own. | Camera pushes in closer on Ryan as the professor begins speaking at the front of the hall. Ryan sits upright, pen poised over his open notebook, the wristband still beside him on the desk. Other students settle into their seats. His face shows quiet, self-assured focus. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone. | lecture-hall | camera pushes in closer on Ryan as the lecture begins |
| 30 | 27 | 88.74–92.58 (3.8) | You can keep waking them until they move out, or try DawnBands risk-free for 60 nights. | Grey light: Mom leans over Ryan's bed, gripping his shoulder as he lies slack and unmoving.

Create a clear 16:9 cinematic pixar storyboard contact sheet for one video-generation batch.

Use exactly FOUR distinct landscape storyboard panels arranged in a clean 2-by-2 grid, read left to right across the top row and then left to right across the bottom row, with clean gutters. Each panel is one consecutive visual shot.

No captions, no labels, no readable text, no logos. ABSOLUTELY NO letters, numerals or symbols anywhere in any panel: clocks and watches have blank faces or plain hands, phone and laptop screens are plain glowing rectangles, papers, envelopes, folders, books, posters, signs and boxes are blank. Numbers spoken in the narration are NOT drawn.

Reference image 1 is character sheet. Preserve the exact faces, hairstyles, skin tones, proportions and outfits in every panel.

Reference image 2 is the dorm-room environment sheet. Every panel set in the dorm-room keeps this room's layout, furniture and palette.

Reference image 3 is the lecture-hall environment sheet. Every panel set in the lecture-hall keeps this room's layout, furniture and palette.

Reference image 4 is the hallway environment sheet. Every panel set in the hallway keeps this room's layout, furniture and palette.

Reference image 5 is the RENDERING STYLE reference (a frame from the target film look). Match its rendering style exactly: eye and face proportions, hair clumping, skin shading, cloth materials, lighting, colour palette and level of detail, so every sheet in the set looks like one film. Copy none of its characters, props or setting.

PANEL 1, top left: Ryan, 16, sprawled asleep in a narrow dorm bed, sunlight crossing his face, mouth slack. On the floor his phone glows and buzzes unanswered. The second bed across the room sits empty, made, untouched. Bright late morning stillness.

PANEL 2, top right: Split frame: Mom sits on Ryan's bed, hand resting on his shoulder, coffee mug in her other hand, face tender as she gently wakes him; he stirs sleepily, comforted. Beside it, a dorm-room door stands open onto an empty corridor of closed doors, silent and still, no one approaching, the space feeling abandoned.

PANEL 3, bottom left: Lecture hall bathed in morning light: students stream in, dropping backpacks and settling into rows as quiet chatter fills the room. One seat in the middle row stays conspicuously empty while others fill in around it, nearby students throwing a faint uneasy glance at the gap. Camera holds on the emptiness.

PANEL 4, bottom right: A dorm-room door in a dim, empty hallway; a plain white envelope slides silently underneath it and stops halfway on the carpet, blank with no writing or markings. No one is visible, just the door and the stark envelope, the quiet space carrying a sense of cold, impersonal finality.

Feature-film 3D animation with strongly caricatured, appealing characters (style audited 2026-09-17 against Turning Red stills): eyes very large, roughly a third of the face height, glossy with big irises; faces wide and round with small noses and wide expressive mouths; bodies rounded and slightly chunky, big heads on simplified shapes; hair sculpted into thick distinct clumps like soft clay, never fine strands; skin soft and matte with a warm subsurface glow; clothing simplified with soft thick folds; cozy rounded environments with soft inviting textures; warm vibrant pastel-leaning palette, cinematic lighting with gentle rim light and gentle depth of field, eye-level camera inside the room, premium animated commercial storyboard. Keep Mom and Ryan recognizable and consistent across all panels.

Reference image 1 is character sheet. Preserve the exact faces, hairstyles, skin tones, proportions and outfits in every panel.

Reference image 2 is the product reference. Reproduce the product EXACTLY as shown: same shape, colour, surface and markings, nothing added. Its small white LED digits read 6:30 wherever the face is visible, never any other time or symbol. The digits sit on the flat top face and run HORIZONTALLY along the length of the strap, upright and read left to right like a watch face, never stacked or rotated vertically.

Reference image 4 is the teen-room environment sheet. Every panel set in the teen-room keeps this room's layout, furniture and palette.

PANEL 1, top left: Close on Ryan's sleeping wrist resting on a pillow in dawn light. The black silicone band's soft motion lines pulse outward in three growing waves, LED digits glowing on its face. His wrist twitches, fingers curl, and his forehead creases into a waking frown. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone.

PANEL 2, top right: Ryan's hands hold the black wristband steady on his desk, thumb pressing down on the flat top face. Small white LED digits flicker on and glow across the band's surface. Warm evening lamp light spills over the desk in the dim room. His hands stay still, focused and deliberate. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone.

PANEL 3, bottom left: A phone lies face down and dark on a wooden desk, ignored. Beside it, a black silicone wristband sits with its flat rectangular face glowing small white LED digits. A hand slides the phone further away across the desk, expression calm and unbothered. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone.

PANEL 4, bottom right: Ryan sits on his bed in low light, buckling the thin silicone band around his wrist, the strap bending softly as the pin slides into a hole. He rests his wrist on the pillow and pulls the blanket up, eyes drifting shut, not looking at the band on his wrist. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone.

PANEL 1, top left: Mom walks down the hallway at an easy pace, coffee mug in hand, unhurried. Through Ryan's open bedroom door beyond her, he is already sitting up on the bed, wristband on his arm, rubbing his eyes awake on his own, calm. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone.

PANEL 2, top right: Low-angle shot: Ryan's bare feet land on the bedroom rug beside the bed, the matte black band pulsing faintly on their wrist. Through the open doorway behind them, Mom stands halfway down the hallway holding a coffee mug, alert, caught mid-step toward the room. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone.

PANEL 3, bottom left: Mom stands at the kitchen counter making lunch, shoulders relaxed, back turned toward the hallway. Down the hall, Ryan's bedroom door stands open, the bed rumpled and empty. She keeps working calmly, unbothered, never turning her head toward the open doorway.

PANEL 4, bottom right: Ryan strides into the kitchen already dressed in his hoodie, backpack slung over one shoulder, band visible on his wrist, grabbing a piece of toast off the counter without slowing down. Mom turns from the counter, eyebrows raised, a surprised smile spreading across her face.

Use exactly TWO distinct landscape storyboard panels arranged in a single row of TWO landscape panels, read left to right, with clean gutters. Each panel is one consecutive visual shot.

No captions, no labels, no readable text, no logos. ABSOLUTELY NO letters, numerals or symbols anywhere in any panel EXCEPT the small white LED digits on the black wristband, which always read 6:30 and run horizontally along the strap, upright, like a watch face: clocks and watches have blank faces or plain hands, phone and laptop screens are plain glowing rectangles, papers, envelopes, folders, books, posters, signs and boxes are blank.

PANEL 1, left: Grey light: Mom leans over Ryan's bed, gripping his shoulder as he lies slack and unmoving. Hard cut to the dorm-room at dawn: Ryan sits up alone in sunlight, wristband glowing with small white LED digits, his face calm and awake. Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone.

PANEL 2, right: A matte black silicone wristband rests alone on a clean warm-toned surface under soft morning light. Its fine diagonal ribbing catches the glow, the flat rectangular top face glows with small white LED digits, and the buckle strap curls loosely beside it, pin holes visible.

Vertical cinematic pixar animation with four visual shots. Image 1 is the shot guide: follow its panels in order, one full-frame shot per panel, never showing a grid, gutters, borders or more than one panel at a time. Every shot listed below MUST appear, each cut landing at the audio time given; do not merge or skip shots. Audio 1 is the narration for this section: use it only as the timing source for the cuts and actions. No on-camera dialogue, no lip-sync.

Shot 1 (0.0s to 4.9s of the audio): Close on Ryan's sleeping wrist resting on a pillow in dawn light. The black silicone band's soft motion lines pulse outward in three growing waves, LED digits glowing on its face. His wrist twitches, fingers curl, and his forehead creases into a waking frown.

Transition: hard cut.

Shot 2 (5.2s to 6.7s of the audio): Ryan's hands hold the black wristband steady on his desk, thumb pressing down on the flat top face. Small white LED digits flicker on and glow across the band's surface. Warm evening lamp light spills over the desk in the dim room. His hands stay still, focused and deliberate.

Transition: hard cut.

Shot 3 (6.9s to 8.4s of the audio): A phone lies face down and dark on a wooden desk, ignored. Beside it, a black silicone wristband sits with its flat rectangular face glowing small white LED digits. A hand slides the phone further away across the desk, expression calm and unbothered.

Transition: hard cut.

Shot 4 (8.6s to 12.1s of the audio): Ryan sits on his bed in low light, buckling the thin silicone band around his wrist, the strap bending softly as the pin slides into a hole. He rests his wrist on the pillow and pulls the blanket up, eyes drifting shut, not looking at the band on his wrist.

Image 2 is the character sheet: keep Mom and Ryan's faces, hair, skin tones, proportions and outfits exactly as drawn there in every shot.

Image 3 is the product reference: the wristband appears exactly as drawn there (Product truth: a plain matte black silicone wristband with fine diagonal ribbing, a flat rectangular top face that shows small white LED time digits, a buckle strap with a row of pin holes; no touchscreen, no apps, no phone.); its small white LED digits read 6:30 whenever the face is visible, never another time — nothing added, no other gadget.

Image 4 is the dorm-room environment sheet: the room keeps this layout, furniture and palette.

Image 5 is the teen-room environment sheet: the room keeps this layout, furniture and palette.

Feature-film 3D animation with strongly caricatured, appealing characters (style audited 2026-09-17 against Turning Red stills): eyes very large, roughly a third of the face height, glossy with big irises; faces wide and round with small noses and wide expressive mouths; bodies rounded and slightly chunky, big heads on simplified shapes; hair sculpted into thick distinct clumps like soft clay, never fine strands; skin soft and matte with a warm subsurface glow; clothing simplified with soft thick folds; cozy rounded environments with soft inviting textures; warm vibrant pastel-leaning palette, cinematic lighting with gentle rim light and gentle depth of field, eye-level camera inside the room. no captions, no readable text, no added music, no extra dialogue.
