09The prompt
A film chapter card on a black screen. A chapter card is already on screen in the very first frame and never moves: the small words 【PART ONE】 in white serif capital letters with wide spacing, centered, above the larger title 【THE ARRIVAL】 in white serif capital letters. 0–6s: the card holds still on black with faint moving film grain. 6–8s: it fades slowly to black. Throughout: two centered lines of text on black, still frame, one continuous take, no subtitles.
Tip
Two lines are safest held still from the first frame, a small line above a larger one. Both spelled right for the whole clip.
