Premium editorial tool-card photo, 2:3 vertical. SELECTED SCENE: 10 stairwell descent one hand on rail BACKGROUND STYLE: STYLE B — CONTROL / DECISION TOOL CARD VISUAL: A single archival off-white paper card placed on a cool gray concrete stairwell landing. The stairwell is empty; a brushed metal handrail runs diagonally in the background but stays soft and out of focus. Cold, controlled lighting with a crisp top-side key light and soft shadow under the card; high contrast, heavy negative space, minimal grit texture. No people, no faces, no hands, no mugs, no desks, no calendars, no clocks, no corporate workspace cues. TEXT OVERLAY (exact line breaks, center aligned, occupies 55–70% of frame): MOTION ISN’T EXIT More motion, same outcome More explanation, less contact More planning, no threshold press play daily SAFE MARGINS: 10% all sides NO HYPHENATION Typography treatment: Headline in heavy bold condensed sans-serif; body in clean serif or neutral sans. One accent word optional in muted gold (use only on “EXIT”). No outlines, no glow, no drop shadows. Strong contrast, ultra-legible at thumbnail size. Studio realism, photographable scene.
