Open with two sentences that put someone on the Croisette with you. Not what Cannes is, what it felt like that week.

The room | Write one sentence that says what kind of room this was.

Who was there, what was at stake, why it was harder than it looks. Two or three sentences.

The setup | Write one sentence about how you built the format.

The format, the constraints, what you decided before anyone showed up.

The moment it turned | Write one sentence about the moment.

The exchange, the question, the answer nobody expected. This is the section that sells you. Spend the most time here.

What they walked away with | Write one sentence about the outcome.

What shipped, what it did, what the client said. Numbers if you have them.
