Slow push-in. SOUND: Distant, electronic whisper; soft ambient rustle. ON-SCREEN TEXT (optional): "Duality" (1s, then fade). --- Scene 2 — Character Entrance (6–12s) SHOT: Over-the-shoulder on the person standing before the mirror; only half of their face visible. Cinematic lighting — one side lit, one side in shadow. CAMERA: Slow cut to the face. SOUND/FX: Soft heartbeat synced to camera approach. NARRATOR (whispery, deep, philosophical): "In each of us there is a mirror..." --- Scene 3 — The Reflection Revealed (12–25s) SHOT: Cut to the reflection in the mirror. One half of the reflection wears a golden mask with a seductive gleam; the other half is bare, fragile, exhausted. DETAILS: Mirror cracks cross the mask and the exposed face, scattering light. Slow dolly/arc around the mirror. SOUND/FX: Intermittent crackle of glass; a short exhale. NARRATOR (slower, more enigmatic): "A mask that shines for others... and a face that colors with wounds when no one watches." --- Scene 4 — Inner Tension (25–35s) SHOT: Close-up on the reflected eyes — one eye looks straight into the camera, defiant. A small sheen appears like a tear. CAMERA: Rack focus from mask to the exposed eye. SOUND/FX: Subtle musical swell (gentle See more
