Director notes

Keep two flexible windows for delays or discoveries.
Protect act seven and act ten; they carry emotional weight.
Avoid stacking all uphill movement at noon.

Act	Emotional function	Practical tip
1-3	Orientation	Move early before density rises
4-6	Expansion	Balance activity with rest
7-8	Peak	Secure a sunset position early
9-10	Resolution	End with one final harbor loop

Final frame

When the last reflection fades and you still feel unrushed, the story arc worked.
