SCENE CONTEXT\nA boy hangs upside down by both ankles from a thick green jungle liana, eyes open, staring at a hairy spider hanging centimeters from his face. He screams, knocks the spider straight down to the ground with his left palm, then draws a machete and cuts himself free, dropping a short distance onto his back.\n\nACTIVE REFERENCES\n<<<29eea5d1-f12e-4b02-9913-44ee8009d290>>>: teenage boy, adventurer, bare-headed, disheveled hair, small backpack on his shoulders, compass pendant on a cord around his neck, a sheath fixed on the FRONT of his belt. 100% matches the reference. Voice: a raw panicked male scream.\n<<<77add297-8f10-438e-b207-c29d11a6ef91>>>: the boy's machete, carried in the sheath on the front of his belt. 100% matches the reference.\n<<<025fc600-2e47-4d28-8324-9721baa3f065>>>: hairy spider, 10–12 centimeters across, weighing 50–70 grams, clearly smaller than the boy's head. 100% matches the reference.\n<<<d459ca81-643a-40b1-bcb3-dc2f4c860210>>>: dense green daytime jungle. 100% matches the reference.\n\nLOCATION MAP\nLocation <<<d459ca81-643a-40b1-bcb3-dc2f4c860210>>>: dense green jungle, daytime. Foreground: thick living lianas and the hanging boy — his ankles bound by a thick GREEN LIANA, a living jungle vine with rough green plant bark and small leaves along its length, anchored 2 meters up; his inverted head hangs close above the jungle floor. Midground: massive tree trunks, hanging vines, low bushes at ground level frame-left, shafts of sunlight through the canopy. Background: deep layered jungle fading into haze at 30 meters. The jungle floor beneath him is soft leaf litter. Sunlight comes from high above through the leaves, soft and diffused. Camera positions vary per shot, always on the shadow side.\n\nFIRST FRAME / BLOCKING\nFirst frame: close-up, inverted — <<<025fc600-2e47-4d28-8324-9721baa3f065>>> hangs on a silk thread at the left edge of frame in sharp focus, and behind it, soft and slightly blurred, the upside-down face of <<<29eea5d1-f12e-4b02-9913-44ee8009d290>>> with eyes WIDE OPEN, locked on the spider. His hair hangs toward the bottom of the frame, confirming he is inverted. His arms are straightened and hang straight toward the ground, elbows unbent — hands and wrists stay below the bottom frame edge.\n\nFORMAT MODE\nTimed multishot, cuts only at the specified points, the camera does not cut on its own.\n0.0s to 4.0s — SHOT 1, CU 29°, inverted framing: <<<025fc600-2e47-4d28-8324-9721baa3f065>>> hangs on its silk thread in sharp focus
