# Two long yellow fruits — saved production notes

Status: Deferred on 12 September 2026. Keep for possible future use.

The clip's expected animation cost is too high for the strength of this moment.
No animation was generated. Pixio credits spent on this preparation: 0.

## Audio

- Original review: 1:48:39.10–1:49:18.00, about 38.9 seconds.
- Tighter proposal: 1:48:44.70–1:49:18.00, about 33.3 seconds.
- The tighter proposal removes the opening preamble and marker-like chatter.
- It keeps the fruit question, responses, and “I might be overthinking this.”
- Both cuts use the original recording at normal speed and the same fixed gain.
- Both audio files remain playable and downloadable from the clip 08 card.

## Speaker and character findings

Replay microphone data suggests Alpha Origins, Pengwine, Caveman, Crypto Overlord,
and Money Miller. These are candidates, not fully reviewed line assignments.
Alpha Origins has the strongest microphone signal during the fruit question and
the “only two” reply. Crypto Overlord is clear during “Oh my God, I love it.”
Several other replies overlap. The “bushel of crabs” line cannot be safely assigned
from the published transcript alone. An unclear phrase near 14.5 seconds in the
tighter cut needs listening review; do not assume the final marker check passed.

Pengwine, Caveman, and Crypto Overlord have existing approved character assets.
The proposed blue-and-gold Alpha Origins robot and masked Money Miller draft
still need casting and design approval. No character approval is implied here.

## Historical cost plan — not a current quote or authorization

The prepared plan estimated 2,291–2,387 Pixio credits, with a proposed 2,400-credit
ceiling. That ceiling was not approved. It used four continuous Kling performances
and one ten-second Money Miller cameo through Wan Maker. Money's rigid mask would
stay in place; the cameo would use subtle head and eye motion, without visible
lip sync. The original soundtrack would remain unchanged.

The last two Kling jobs implied 24 credits per stored audio second. Pixio's
estimate endpoint still returned 120 for this clip, so that response was not
reliable as a spending limit. The official rate and rounding rule remain unverified.
Wan showed four included uses remaining at the check, but quoted 35 credits; the
plan reserved 35. Recheck every rate and allowance before revisiting this clip.

## Proposed scene and remaining work

Reuse Pengwine's furnished set. Seat Pengwine and Alpha Origins at the desk, with
Caveman in an upper vignette. Crypto Overlord and Money Miller can make separate
brief cameos. Keep each performance continuous, with soft vignette edges and
normal motion speed. No speed changes or stitched facial repairs.

If selected again, confirm the cast, resolve overlaps and the unclear phrase,
review the cut and composition, then obtain current quotes and a new budget.
A time mask does not isolate simultaneous voices. No voiceprints or voice-based
identity matching were used. All detailed source records remain in the SpaceDrops
repository under cast/productions/space-drop-012-two-yellow-fruits/.
