Designing a readable 10-second cartoon gag

We used a single visually obvious cause: a moving red carpet. The tuxedo cat's goal is to make a flawless entrance. His date stays composed while he slips, regains his dignity beside a giant rolled carpet, then gets an affectionate nose-tap. The carpet moves again to return the story toward its opening.

The creative principle is one prop, distinct changing states and an earned character payoff. The final export keeps a consistent one-line question throughout and deliberately blurs a source corner mark. A 720p source was upscaled to 1080p; this is not native 1080p generation.
