BrainSavers · Season 2 Relaxation · Draft for review
Calm Start to the Day
Jeff Carnivale, narration · AI-generated visuals · 3:25
This is a draft, not a finished segment.
Everything you see was generated for this test — one woman, her morning, and her
imagination. The narration is Jeff’s real recording. It replaces what would
otherwise be a studio shoot.
How it’s built
The opening is the real BrainSavers title card, re-titled for this segment.
The first minute stays with her — waking, settling, closing her eyes — at normal speed.
The middle is her imagination, outdoors, every shot at half speed and moving only forward.
The end comes back indoors to her cup, her room, and her day.

About a third of that was re-shooting shots that didn’t work — which gets cheaper
as the format settles. Against roughly $5,000–$6,000 for a studio day.
