Take a portrait-video brief from reference to delivery
Use The Best Seat in the Library to plan a short video assignment. This demonstration project turns an approved chair and library reference into a 23-second portrait composition with five scenes, narration, captions and music. The project screens show the framing instructions and the editable cut.

Agree the reference, format and opening
Turn the brief into decisions you can review: the approved chair and library, a 9:16 composition and an opening question. The first image uses Seedream 5.0 Pro. Its instructions preserve the chair details in the central 70% and reserve space for text added during editing.
-
Define what each of the five scenes delivers
The sequence covers the opening question, walnut detail, green velvet, the reading corner and a closing question. These scenes total 20 seconds before the final sequence. Use a shot list like this to agree the coverage before spending on additional variations.
-
Make voice and caption revisions easy to locate
Five narration clips accompany the scenes, with captions visible on the timeline and in the preview. Ask for changes against a specific phrase or scene. Keep the voice, captions and picture organized so you can review wording and timing together.
-
Review the complete portrait delivery
A separate 20-second music layer supports the 23-second composition. Check caption readability, chair visibility, narration timing and the closing question throughout the portrait preview. Confirm the agreed composition and render settings, then play the delivery file before handing it over.
How should I scope revisions?
Agree the scene list, caption wording, delivery format and included revision rounds before production. Identify whether a request changes the edit or requires a new generated shot. A different chair, setting or camera direction may need a new reference and another run estimate.
How do I budget this kind of assignment?
Review AI estimates using the intended references and output settings, and allow for discarded takes. Account for editing time and project resources separately. Use final charges to reconcile actual AI usage against the budget after the work is complete.
What belongs in the handoff check?
Confirm duration, portrait dimensions, caption spelling, voice timing, music and the closing message. Check that important chair details remain visible when text appears. Record the approved version and the framing changes needed for any additional format.
