Object biography: from mine/farm to shelf in one episode

A 5-beat faceless video outline for “Object biography: from mine/farm to shelf in one episode” in the Supply chain journeys niche, derived from caption timing of 2 reference videos.

Angles

• Start at the doorstep (package arrives 5 minutes after leaving) and trace backwards
• Each hop names a place and a constraint
• End on the unsung hero (the container / the box)

Beat-by-beat structure

1. Hook (0:00–0:30): package on the doorstep; 'how did it get here?'.
2. Last mile → warehouse (0:30–2:00).
3. Ocean & port (2:00–4:00): container ships, congestion, chartering.
4. Factory & raw materials (4:00–6:00).
5. Close on the humble box + recap map. Original narration only.

Method

yt-dlp VTT captions (uploader-provided, not auto/ASR) → timed beat heuristics → editorial topic synthesis. Structure only; write original narration.
