A tight, top-down shot on a smartphone screen showing a surreal, glitched AI-generated video of a melting landscape. A thumb swipes rapidly across the glass, leaving a faint trail of light.

Background calm and uncluttered — at most a softly glowing blank panel with no screen content: no text, no charts, no numbers, no icons, no UI. Flat palette of warm neutral tones and muted blue. Vertical 9:16 portrait, no background crowd.
