THE ATB SHOW / EPISODE KIT / 20 SEPTEMBER 2026

Identity
Use the selected outlined show logo. Do not retype, stretch or separate it.
05 / Busy backgrounds: use solid cream or ink behind the logo over pattern or photography.
The films clear the moving strips away and reveal cream lettering directly on ink.

Intro: 4 seconds, 1920 x 1080, 30 fps.
Music: 90 BPM. Straight vertical strips split in mirrored pairs.
The centre bars assemble into the star and rotate through a half-turn.
The star docks in the full logo while lettering reveals from 1.90s.
The complete logo lands on the 2.67-second downbeat and fades from 3.80s.
Soft stereo sweeps follow the split; a major chord and kick land with the logo.
Place after the cold open and before the host introduction.

Outro: 18 seconds, 1920 x 1080, 30 fps.
One action: choose a lesson and try it this week. Episode Action Sheet in the description.
From 3 seconds onwards, reserved areas stay clear for the related-video and subscribe controls.
Add those native controls in YouTube Studio; the MP4 itself has no clickable controls.
Video rectangle in the 1920 x 1080 master: x=756, y=388, width=678, height=382.
Subscribe circle: centre=(1640,580), radius=128.
For other platforms, use the resource link and destination-appropriate call to action.
Publish the Action Sheet and test its link before using this end card.

Selected thumbnail: warm studio, two inward-facing conversation moments and a short cream headline.
Retain visible studio depth, expressive eyes, microphones and natural gestures.
Use the same bold sans-serif type throughout. Put a solid orange rectangle behind a whole word,
with dark lettering and compact padding. The small show logo sits in the upper-left corner.
Original artwork: /brand/show/thumbnail-selected-warm-orange.png (1672 x 941).
The original selected PNG is preserved unchanged; it is not an editable layered SVG.
SHA-256: 26fd2252f6bccdb909f3a9378ebe1f07c494016435999c65a587cd9a7240b1b9

This AI-assisted illustrative artwork features Akhil Boddu and Steven Bartlett at Akhil's request.
References: Akhil's guest-page studio concept and the supplied Steven Bartlett podcast reference.
It is not from a shared recording, does not announce an episode and does not quote either person.
For episode releases, use appropriate photos and wording supported by that conversation.
Review at 320px wide and keep important text clear of the platform duration badge.
Earlier lime and kikoy studies are not the selected thumbnail direction.

Sound
Original synthesized instrumental made for this kit. No third-party samples or melodies were imported.
Aspirational lo-fi: warm major-ninth electric keys, rounded bass, rising plucked motif,
laid-back kick and snare, swung shakers and hand-percussion-style accents.
The intro and outro share the melodic signature. WAV masters and MP4s are provided.
The instrumental has no spoken narration. Captions describe sound and visual transitions.

Source
Editable Remotion compositions ATBIntro and ATBOutro live in the atb-hub repository at tools/show-motion/.
The delivered MP4s use the same deterministic frame source rendered through SVG/FFmpeg.
See tools/show-motion/README.md for editing and rebuilding instructions.

Sponsorship / placement guide: https://africantechbro.ai/brand#sponsorship
Plato is a placeholder name in the web previews, not an announced partner or official logo.
Previews are HTML/CSS overlays, not new sponsor-rendered MP4s; approved masters remain unchanged.
Presenting: agreed opening credit, 30–45s host read, closing mention and supporting placements.
Thumbnail sponsor badge is optional and requires explicit scope: lower-left, approximately 16% width,
3% minimum inset, solid backing. Preserve headline, faces, logo and lower-right duration area.
After the 4s ATB ident: 5–8s welcome, containing a 2s sponsor card and spoken acknowledgement.
Continue the lo-fi motif and duck under speech. Sponsor does not join the star assembly.
Host read at a natural topic break: spoken disclosure, on-screen label, approved facts, one destination.
Remove segment label when returning to editorial conversation.
Outro: upper-right thank-you, preserving Action Sheet, related-video and subscribe areas.
Disclose each sponsored vertical clip; verify safe areas in its actual platform interface.
Description, pinned comment and Action Sheet carry the same disclosed tracked partner destination.
Supporting: closing mention, description link, agreed clip and Action Sheet credit.
Final deliverables, rights, exclusivity and dates follow the written scope, not these previews.
Collect approved logos/variants, pronunciation, factual script/offer terms, approval deadline,
working link/code, rights and campaign dates. Check disclosures, paid-promotion settings,
320px thumbnail readability, vertical overlays, end-screen targets and voice/music mix.
