## Official logo assets

| Pack file | Controlled source | Validation |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `logos/ball-arena-logo.svg` | https://www.ballarena.com/content/img/ball-logo-132.svg | Official SVG from Ball Arena site; 94.73 × 64.54 viewBox, native cyan `#00accd`; visually inspected on dark and light grounds |

## Reference-grounded transformations

All four stills were generated through the connected official Higgsfield MCP. The service resolved the requested Nano Banana Pro route to `nano_banana_2`; output was 2752 × 1536 PNG. Prompts prohibited invented architecture, screens, signage, words, and logos.

| Finished still | Grounding source | Higgsfield job | Review status |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `stills/exterior-signal.png` | `source/ball-arena-exterior.jpg` | `2a3fe996-aa64-4845-99b5-dc5ced599926` | Approved; architecture preserved |

The `*-social-9x16.png` and `*-social-4x5.png` files are deterministic center crops of the approved finished stills above; they contain no additional generation.

## Motion moments

Both silent 6-second 16:9 moments were generated through the official Higgsfield MCP with `seedance_2_0`, `1080p`, standard mode, high bitrate, and no generated audio. Each starts from an approved reference-grounded still. Final exported MP4s are locally encoded with H.264, `yuv420p`, fast-start metadata, and separate mobile 720p/tighter-GOP versions.

## Claims and omissions

- The experience describes a visual campaign study and does not assert that the illustrated activation is currently installed or live.
- No unverified performance, ownership, audience, or commercial metrics are used.
- No control-room scene is shown because an official Ball Arena/KSE/ANC-controlled control-room photograph was not found.
- No separate concourse scene is shown because the available controlled sources did not support it strongly enough.
- The public experience links the official logos as real assets; no logo or readable campaign copy was generated into the media.
