Why it works
The 0:00 skeptical headline and visible green path handles turn an illustrated car into an immediate process proof; the handles vanish around 0:02.25. Seven roughly one-third-second cuts from 0:03.5–0:05.9 multiply the result into a colourful world, while the 12.33-second animated crosswalk gives the viewer time to explore it. The learning invitation arrives at 0:12.3, after the work has earned attention, and eight quick closing cuts restore momentum at 0:22.6.
