First Challenge - Video

[ When the video turns on, a short haired woman appears on screen. She appears in her late twenties, possibly early thirties, and is focusing very intently on the screen. In fact, her eyes seem to be focused on something apart from the screen, in front or behind it. The truly unusual thing here is that the whole image is obscured by an odd purple glow, almost like a flame. Finally her focus snaps onto the screen itself as she realizes it’s recording, and the flame disappears. A satisfied grin reaches her face, and colors come into focus: fiery red hair and vivid purple eyes. ]
