Let the window establish the scene
The opening needs a readable destination: one inviting pool of light inside a dark apartment facade. A table, an ordinary meal and an unhurried subject make the scene feel domestic. Keep that setup simple when judging the concept. Too many glowing windows compete for attention, while an oversized burger or dramatic monster changes the joke. The camera approach is part of the intended movement, not something a still illustration can demonstrate. A wide establishing view explains why the later close encounter feels unexpectedly personal.
