Rings of ink floating on water swirl to fill the frame, then give way to the next shot.

## Palette
- #EFE9DC Paper (~45%)
- #121216 Sumi (~35%)
- #8A8A90 Pale gray (~20%)

## Visual traits
- Mid-transition: concentric rings of black ink alternating with pale gray rings, spreading from several centers on pale paper
- The rings are bent and twisted by a gentle vortex, but stay continuous and never cross
- Ring widths vary slightly; edges are soft but defined, like ink floating on water
- Sequence: rings spread and swirl until they seal the frame at the midpoint, then clear to reveal the next shot

Sequence: the rings spread and swirl until they seal the frame at the midpoint, then clear onto the next shot.
