SCENE 2 — Meet the Turning Arms Time: 00:39–01:04 | Tool: TomoMotion | Attach: approved Mili reference + diagram below Geometry reference — attach to TomoMotion Keep O fixed. One arm stays still; the other rotates around O. Exact narration: MILI: “We can model this movement using two arms joined at one common point. Watch what happens when one arm stays still and the other arm turns.” [Animate rotation.] “The amount of turn changes the opening between the arms.” On-screen text: TWO ARMS • ONE COMMON POINT COPY INTO TOMOMOTION — SCENE 2 Create a premium 3D educational geometry scene, 16:9. Use the approved Mili character reference and attached geometry diagram. In a clean rotating-arms workspace, show two straight arms joined at fixed point O. One arm remains horizontal and fixed; the other rotates smoothly around O through several positions. Keep O completely stationary. Mili wears a neat STEM-lab casual outfit and explains the model. Use the exact narration in this handoff. No angle classifications, degree values or protractor. If labels render poorly, leave the diagram clean for editor overlays. SCENE 3 — Small Turn or Big Turn? Time: 01:04–01:29 | Tool: TomoMotion | Attach all three diagrams below Reference 1 — small opening State 1. Same pivot and fixed arm direction as the other states. Reference 2 — medium opening State 2. Do not change the pivot location. Reference 3 — wide opening State 3. The moving arm turns farther, making the opening wider. Exact narration: MILI: “Which one shows the smallest turn?” [PAUSE 2 SECONDS] “And which one shows the largest turn?” [PAUSE 2 SECONDS] “As the arm turns farther, the opening becomes wider.” On-screen text: SMALLER TURN → SMALLER OPENING / LARGER TURN → LARGER OPENING COPY INTO TOMOMOTION — SCENE 3 Show three versions of the same rotating-arm model side by side. Match the attached references: small, medium and wide openings. Keep the pivot aligned and one arm fixed in all three. Ask each question from the exact narration and leave two seconds before revealing the intended comparison. Animate the moving arm smoothly. No numeric angle values, no protractor, no extra labels. Add text in post-production. SCENE 4 — Tara Joins the Discovery Time: 01:29–01:54 | Tool: TomoMotion | Attach approved Mili + Tara references Exact dialogue: TARA: “Mili, can I try?” MILI: “Of course! Try making different openings.” [Tara moves small → medium → wide.] TARA: “So I can make different angles just by changing how far the arm turns!” MILI: “Exactly!” On-screen text: SMALL → MEDIUM → WIDE COPY INTO TOMOMOTION — SCENE 4 Create a premium 3D animated hands-on geometry scene using the approved Mili and Tara references exactly. Preserve both characters’ identity and proportions. Mili wears STEM-lab casual clothing; Tara wears practical casual clothing. Tara holds a two-coloured strip model joined at a clear pivot and rotates one arm to make a small, medium and wide opening. Keep the pivot fixed. Use the exact dialogue provided. Natural expressions and gestures, no additional characters, no school uniforms by default, no generated text. SCENE 5 — Can We Arrange Them? Time: 01:54–02:16 | Tool: TomoMotion | Attach small/medium/wide reference set Visual reference — use to build four models Create four different openings. Do not use arm length as the clue. Additional opening state Use as a mid-range reference. Wider opening state Use as a larger opening reference. Exact dialogue: MILI: “Can you arrange these from the smallest angle to the largest angle?” [PAUSE 2 SECONDS] “How did you decide?” TARA: “I looked at how wide the arms open.” MILI: “Excellent! We can compare angles by looking at their openings and the amount of turn.” On-screen text: LOOK AT THE OPENING COPY INTO TOMOMOTION — SCENE 5 Show four rotating-arm models with different openings in a clean workspace. Tara arranges them from smallest opening to largest. Keep pivot points visible and use opening size—not arm length, colour or model size—as the comparison cue. Use exact dialogue and pause from the handoff. No degree values or protractor. SCENE 6 — The Arm-Length Trick Time: 02:16–02:50 | Tool: TomoMotion | Attach the diagram below Visual reference — critical misconception scene Angle A: long arms, narrow opening. Angle B: shorter arms, wider opening. Correct answer: Angle B. Exact dialogue: MILI: “Which angle is bigger?” [PAUSE 2–3 SECONDS] TARA: “The first one looks bigger…” MILI: “Look again, Tara. Are we comparing the length of the arms, or the opening between them?” TARA: “The opening!” MILI: “Right! The length of the arms does not decide the size of the angle. Even if the arms become longer or shorter, the angle can stay the same.” On-screen text: ANGLE SIZE → LOOK AT THE OPENING / NOT THE ARM LENGTH COPY INTO TOMOMOTION — SCENE 6 Show Angle A with long arms and a narrow opening beside Angle B with shorter arms and a wider opening, matching the attached reference. Ask which angle is bigger and leave a 2–3 second thinking pause. Tara initially says the first looks bigger. Mili directs attention to the opening; Tara identifies it. Then animate arm lengths changing while each angle’s opening remains unchanged. Do not alter the opening during a length-only change. Correct conclusion: arm length does not decide angle size. No degrees, protractor or extra characters. SCENE 7 — The Slit Challenge Time: 02:50–03:20 | Tool: TomoMotion | Attach the diagram below Visual reference — three model choices Target opening matches Model C. Model A is too narrow; Model B is too wide; Model C matches. Exact dialogue: MILI: “Which pair of arms will fit through the slit?” TARA tests A and B. TARA: “Too narrow… too wide… This one fits!” MILI: “Yes! The opening matches the angle of the slit. We didn't need the arms to have the same length. We needed their angle to match.” On-screen text: A — TOO NARROW ✕ / B — TOO WIDE ✕ / C — MATCHES ✓ COPY INTO TOMOMOTION — SCENE 7 Create a hands-on cardboard slit challenge in a clean geometry workspace. Use the attached reference. Show a target V-shaped slit and three two-arm models. A is too narrow, B is too wide, and C matches the target opening exactly. Only C passes through. Keep the target opening fixed and pivots visible. Arm lengths do not need to match. Use the exact narration and labels in the handoff. SCENE 8 — From Turns to Special Angles Time: 03:20–03:40 | Tool: TomoMotion | Attach small and wide references Reference — small opening teaser Use without classification labels. Reference — wider opening teaser Then briefly show a quarter-turn-like position and a straight-line position, without naming either. Exact dialogue: MILI: “So far, we've seen that different turns create different angles. But what if we make some special turns?” TARA: “Special turns?” MILI: “Yes! Some turns and angles have special names. In our next exploration, we'll discover what makes these angles special.” On-screen text: WHAT MAKES SOME TURNS SPECIAL? COPY INTO TOMOMOTION — SCENE 8 Show the rotating arm moving from a small opening to a wider opening, then briefly pause at a quarter-turn-like position and a straight-line position. These are only teasers; do not label or explain the classifications. Mili and Tara use the exact dialogue in the handoff. Keep the pivot fixed. No degree labels or protractor.

Video narration

Which is the bigger angle: the one with long arms and a narrow opening, or the one with short arms and a wide opening? Think of scissors. Their two blades meet at one fixed join. One blade stays still while the other turns. The angle is the opening between them. Turn the blade farther, and the opening gets wider. Bring it back, and it gets narrower. Now compare these: long arms, narrow opening; short arms, wider opening. The arms' length can fool you, but it does not decide the angle. Keep your eyes on the space between them. Even if the arms become longer or shorter, the opening can stay exactly the same. That means the angle stays the same too. So which is bigger? The short-armed angle: it has the wider opening. With scissors, judge how far the blades open, not how long they are.
