One Corner All Christmas Week
Keep the same window and the same chair all week. Change the gift, and keep the host's face locked.
Film the whole Christmas week from one corner: the same window and the same chair, with a new gift when the gift is the news. The host's face stays locked. Changing the room and the person on the same day makes the account look like a series of strangers. Approve each still before it moves, and compare it with the first morning. Life photos can reuse this host in this corner. Clothes may change. The chair, the window, and the face do not. If the host looks real, say the host is AI. Mark the window and the chair on the first morning, swap only the gift, and compare the face with that first still before anything moves. Keep one speaker for a practical reel of 15–45 seconds. The first 3 seconds show the same corner and the locked face, and they say what is new about today's gift. Reject a new room, a drifted hairline, or two changes in the same still. If the face or the voice could be mistaken for a real person, the caption must say it is AI, and the platform label stays visible.
Mark the window and the chair
Choose the glass and the seat on the first day and describe them the same way afterward. The window stays on the same side of the frame. The chair stays at the same distance. A new rug, a new wall, or a new time of day disguised as a new shop will read as a new person even when the face held. Describe the glass on the same side and the chair at the same distance every day before you bring in a new object. The first 3 seconds show that window and that chair and say which gift is the news. Reject a new rug, a new wall, or a new shop disguised as a new time of day.
Swap the gift, not the place
The new object is the reason for a new reel. Put it on the sill or in the hands, and leave the corner alone. One gift at a time. If you also change the knit, do that in a separate still and approve the face again. Two changes at once hide a drift in the eyes or the hairline. Put the new gift on the sill only after the corner is unchanged, one object at a time. In the first 3 seconds the picture is the same seat with one new gift, and the words name that gift. Do not post a knit change and a gift change in the same still.
Reuse the host on purpose
A life photo later in the week should be recognizable as the same person in the same corner, not a fresh casting. Approve the still before motion every time. Label the realistic face as AI in the caption, and leave the platform label visible. The repetition is the point of the week. Approve the face against the first morning, then post, and carry the same corner into a later life photo. In the first 3 seconds, viewers see the locked host and hear the point of today's gift. Throw out a still that moved the host to a new room before the file goes up.
A worked example
A plant shop films from the chair by the street window. Monday's reel has a wreath on the sill. Thursday's reel has a potted tree in the same spot, same chair, same face. A still that moved the host to a new room is rejected. Each caption says the host is AI. Keep Thursday's potted tree on the same sill as Monday's wreath, and reject the still that changed rooms. The first 3 seconds show the chair, the street window, and the locked face, and they say which plant is new. One speaker, 15–45 seconds. If the face looks real, the caption says the host is AI, and the platform label stays in place.
Before you post
- Keep the same window and chair.
- Change the gift, not the face.
- Approve each still, and label the host as AI.
Where Scro fits
Scro locks one host face so this corner can return all week. Change clothes only when you mean to, approve stills before motion, and reuse the host in life photos. Export 9:16. Label the realistic face as AI. Reuse this locked host in the same corner, then export 9:16. The first 3 seconds show the window, the chair, and one gift, and say what changed. Reject a new head. If the face or voice could be mistaken for a real person, the caption says it is AI.
Stay in this corner. Finished samples are on the examples page.
