# BRIEF: carney-alberta-aj-reel

## What the user said
- Verbatim (the first message of the run, relayed by the lead session; ice/log/conversation.jsonl entry 1): "عدّل الفيديو الخام raw.mp4 بنفس أسلوب مونتاج ريلز الجزيرة اللي في reference.mp4 بالظبط، بالمحتوى بتاع الخام وبهوية الجزيرة زي ما هي. دوّر على أحدث لقطات حقيقية ورسمية مناسبة ونزّلها، ومسموحلك تنزّل أي موديل أو أداة محتاجها. ما تسألنيش أسئلة البداية وقرر أنت، بس وريني المعاينة قبل ما تبني الفيديو."
