Cut a process reel from the real drawing
Record the canvas, cut a short vertical video, and do not invent a timelapse.
People follow process videos because the hand is visible. A generated timelapse of a picture that appeared all at once is a different genre, and it should not wear the same caption.

How to do it
- 1
Record the file you are making
In OBS, capture the canvas, not the whole desktop full of client names. Start when you start. Stop when you stop.
- 2
Cut for the decision
In CapCut or DaVinci Resolve, keep the moments where the drawing changes: the likeness, the color, the crop. Speed up empty time. Do not add a fake 'AI finish.'

Caption what happened
On-screen text can name the tool you used for a levels pass or a crop. It should not claim a step you skipped.

Export a short vertical file
A minute is plenty. The last frame should be the picture you are willing to sign.
