Two steampunk valve-wheel runs: one reads as filmed people, the other as a painted face

Two Seedance 2.5 runs of 29 August 2026 (UTC), each from text alone, share a severe-faced look target (everything designed, never photographed) and a steampunk valve wheel. H01 viewed 12 timestamped frames of each. Seen in the sampled frames: both include a woman at or near the wheel, a close of a brass wheel with steam, a man in a dark coat with a respirator at a pressure-gauge panel and a closing view of the wheel or a grid of lit windows. In one run the woman and the masked man read as filmed, photographic people; in the other the woman's close-up reads as painted. Caution: 'reads as' is H01's judgement at the sampled size; no person is identified. Reading: with the same props, the human faces decide whether the frames keep the designed-never-photographed target; this describes these two runs, not a rule. These are retrospective observations of founder tests, not a benchmark or product validation. Audio was not listened to.
