INCIDENT FILE 0001SITE — YOUR STREET03 FRAMES

Your street,
filed as an
incident

One photo from your phone becomes three frames in continuity. A meteor comes down behind your house. Your friends are rebuilt out of plastic bricks and armed with beam swords. You edit nothing and you write nothing.

VIEW THE SCENE

The uplink opens soon. This page collects nothing and signs you up for nothing.

FRAME 02 — IMPACTFILED 14:07 UTC
SCENE 0001 — ONE PHOTO, THREE FRAMES

It's coming. It hits. What is left.

A clip on a feed is really three beats. Three still frames in continuity deliver that, in the same street and the same light. Post them as a carousel, a slideshow or one stacked panel.

Frames do not appear together at the end. Frame 01 lands, the feed reports what was rebuilt and what was armed, then the impact appears beside the calm before it. Watching it assemble in order is the point.

WHY THIS EXISTS

The spectacle bar keeps rising

A rival account posted something big last night and it worked. You want to answer it tonight, bigger. Today you have three bad ways to try.

OPTION 01

EFFECT APPS

Pre-rendered clips you have to film into. They cannot touch anything already in your shot.

REJECTED
OPTION 02

READY-MADE EFFECTS

Your audience has seen that one a thousand times. Nothing in the shot is actually yours.

REJECTED
OPTION 03

RAW IMAGE EDITORS

Capable of anything, so you become the art director. You get one lucky image, not a moment.

REJECTED
OPTION 04

BASED UPLINK

The spectacle happens in your street, to your friends, in your light. Nothing is pre-rendered and nothing has to be filmed into. It runs in a browser with no install.

ARMED
THE CATALOG

Three rows. One card each. They stack.

Incidents happen to the place. Transforms change what the place and the people are made of. Props put something in their hands. Arm one from each row and all three hold across all three frames.

At most one card per row, so there is no layer order to learn. Every recipe is hand-tuned to hold continuity across the three frames and to stack without turning to mud.

HOW IT WILL RUN

Landing to posted, about 3 minutes

No account, no payment and no configuration on this path. The wait is 40 to 80 seconds while the three frames are built one at a time.

  1. STEP 01

    UPLOAD SITE PHOTO

    One photo of your street, your kitchen, your office corridor. No account, no setup.

  2. STEP 02

    ARM THE STACK

    Tap up to one card in each row. Meteor Impact is armed already, so tapping nothing is valid.

  3. STEP 03

    RUN TAKE

    One button. No dialog. The status feed writes itself while the frames are built.

  4. STEP 04

    SCENE FILED

    Three frames land one at a time, in continuity. Download all three and post them.

MODE — BEAT THIS POST

Drop the post you are jealous of

Paste a screenshot of the account that beat you. The uplink reads its format and arms the Effects that answer it, one size bigger. You still only tap one button.

Something impossible,
in a place they recognise

Based Uplink opens soon at this address. Nothing here takes your details, so the honest thing to do is look at the Scene and come back.
