“The stage is being prepared during a live light and sound test. Bright spotlights flicker and sweep across the stage as the lighting system calibrates. A sound technician at the mixing desk adjusts levels, glancing up briefly toward Nova. Nova stands at the microphone, illuminated by shifting warm stage lights. She looks directly into the camera for a second and gives a subtle, confident eyelash flick. Light haze drifts through the air, and cables, speakers and equipment vibrate slightly as the audio system is tested. Keep movements natural, subtle and realistic, as if captured during a real pre-show soundcheck.”
