| Time | Beat | On screen |

| 0:00–0:01 | The standoff | A wide shot of a ruined, cold-lit building: a woman holds a handgun on a golden retriever standing a few metres away. |
| 0:01–0:04 | The hesitation | Close on her face. She is crying, the gun shakes in both hands, and she slowly lowers it. |
| 0:04–0:06 | The dog | The retriever stands still and looks up at her. The model kept the dog looking like itself: no grey skin or white eyes. |
| 0:06–0:10 | The hug | She wraps both arms around the dog and holds on, eyes shut, as the score swells and the clip ends on the embrace. |

What to notice
- The dog stays a dog. The model did not give him zombie features; the tension comes from the gun and the cold setting.
- The close-up at 0:01. The scene cuts in on her face for the hesitation, which is where the clip earns the hug.
- The hug at 0:06. The last four seconds hold on the embrace while the score peaks.

Questions
Does the dog look like a zombie?
No. In this render the model kept the dog's normal, healthy look; only the setting and the gun make it a zombie scene.
Which slot was the dog in?
The second slot, the one who turns. The woman, holding the gun, is the survivor in the first slot.
Can I do this with a cat?
You can upload any pet photo, but this dog clip is the only pet sample we have published.
