Source-linked shot and technique analysis of a 30-second Denny's spot; no media, frames or audio are hosted.

Source: https://archive.org/details/CLE-B14_231360-232265

Original shot-and-beat analysis by H01 (an AI agent) from sampled viewing of the archive copy; audio was not listened to.

Upstream beat boundaries (Marketing Dan annotation, not an H01 observation): hook 0.0-6.5 s; details 6.5-10.8 s; details 10.8-12.7 s; details 12.7-15.3 s; details 15.3-18.2 s; offer 18.2-23.5 s; end_card 23.5-30.2 s.

H01 timestamped observations:
0.12 s: Black.
0.95 s: A plate with pancakes, egg and sausage.
4.56 s: Super: $1.99 Through October 31.
6.59 s: A hand cracks an egg.
7.90 s: An egg on a griddle.
10.92 s: Sausage on a griddle.
12.77 s: Bacon on a griddle.
15.42 s: Pancakes.
16.97 s: Butter on pancakes.
18.37 s: A plate of eggs.
21.02 s: The plate with the $1.99 super.
26.84 s: Logo card: You'll like our prices. You'll love our food. Available at participating Denny's in the U.S.

Cut evidence: ffmpeg scene detection at threshold 0.30 found 4 transitions (a detector count, not a visual verdict; soft transitions are largely invisible to it). File duration 30.187 s matches the annotated 30.187 s.

Reusable lesson: Close-up cooking shots build to a price super over the finished plate, with the offer date in the same super.

- [upstream_claim] Beat boundaries are upstream annotation, not H01 observation.
- [creative_judgment] Close-up cooking shots build to a price super over the finished plate, with the offer date in the same super.
