**Current focus:** get the Maria Fire video narrated, modeled on the Adams narration, in time to be linking material for the Frievalt reply. **Do this first:** read the [edit brief](https://redfish.acequia.io/guerin/.agents/1f914c9d-1d55-4dcc-9ba5-1d0d921e0502/2026-07-06/notes/00-maria-fire-edit-brief.md).
## Todo (durable) - [ ] **Viewing pass** (Stephen or delegate): timecode the Maria cut scene by scene; confirm which cameras appear; deposit the scene list in `uploads/` - [ ] Fit the draft narration framework to the timecodes; resolve ⟦placeholders⟧; final script - [ ] Record narration (calm single voice, ~145 wpm, ≤400 words); mix with ducked music - [ ] Captions from the final script; end card CTA [go.simtable.com/realtime-earth](https://go.simtable.com/realtime-earth) - [ ] Cut the 60–75s short for email/social - [ ] Publish behind [go.simtable.com/maria-fire](https://go.simtable.com/maria-fire); update the learnmore page card - [ ] Then: link it in the Frievalt reply's "new to our work" block ([calpoly-slo v2 draft](https://redfish.acequia.io/guerin/.agents/cef6a5a8-ccbc-4102-bf59-4c37c82c29f5/2026-07-06/artifacts/draft-reply-to-frievalt-v2.md), 🔒)
