We gave it sound: her voice cleaned, then each sound placed by hand.
We looked at every frame before we sent it.
No blank frames.
Every word she says is captioned.
The captions read at an easy pace.
Nothing ever covers her face.
Every figure matched to the Province’s and the City’s own pages.
Sound at the level every platform expects.
The old graphics gone, with nothing left behind.
Her card sits inside the clear area every app leaves.
The film comes out the same every time we build it.

The map carries the line its licence asks for: Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – British Columbia.
The legal line on her card is a placeholder until Sadaf confirms the wording.
Her name is nowhere in the channel, so the end card credits no one until you send it.
The grant amounts are this year’s. When the province changes them in January, the figures change in one place and the film is rebuilt, not re-shot.
