День 9 – Сцена́рий · filming script
🎬 День 9 «Ру́ки, но́ги, ла́пы и коты́!» – сцена́рий · filming script for Natasha (print this page) · lesson: Russian 1/Day 9 · all scripts: index
✅ Before you film (from test 1, 3 Nov 2026)
- 📱 Phone sideways, on a tripod or a pile of books – it must not move. Richard sets it.
- 📏 Phone at the height of your chest. The bottom quarter of the picture is floor – the cats need room. Stand a little to the left; the right side stays free for the cats and the things Claude adds.
- 💡 Light on your face, never a window behind you. Same clothes for every clip of this day.
- ⏸ Look at the camera → say the line → the action on the loud syllable → 2 seconds pause. At the very end: stand still 2 seconds and smile (Claude cuts there).
- 🎒 Props: your ring 💍, a jar, your own slippers 🥿 on the floor beside you; a piece of bread and cheese if you like – the rest is animated: the two tables, the big loaf, the big cheese, the sandwiches and both cats. For the game: only you.
- 👣 Your feet must be in the picture (lines 4–5 and the game) – stand one step further back.
- ⏱ Story video ≈ 2½ minutes. The word sounds (mp3) are cut from these clips later – say each word clearly.

3. The gesture game «Хло́пайте! То́пайте!» (one take, ~30 s)
The idea of If You're Happy and You Know It, our own words. Show the part of the body, then clap or stamp on the loud syllable. Twice: slowly, then faster. Claude adds Slinky (paws up on «Ла́пы!»); Scuffles joins only at the very end with one «Топ!».
| Say | Do |
|---|---|
| Ру́ки! | show both hands on РУ |
| Хло́пайте! | clap once on ХЛО |
| Хлоп-хлоп! | clap twice |
| Но́ги! | point at your feet on НО |
| То́пайте! | stamp once on ТО |
| Топ-топ! | stamp twice |
| Ла́пы! | hands up like a cat's paws on ЛА |
| Мя́у! | a cat face, a little scratch in the air («Мя́у!» = Slinky, recorded by Natalia) |
| Ру́ки – хлоп-хлоп! Но́ги – топ-топ! | clap, then stamp – faster! |
| Мы – молодцы́! | both thumbs up on ЦЫ 🎉 |
4. Short clip: Звук дня Ы (15 s)
Say «и» and pull your tongue back: «мы, ты, сыр, ры́ба, мы́ло, столы́, коты́, ла́пы». Pairs: «мы – ми́ска, ты – ти́хо, сыр – Сли́нки».
