Read the Eight Targets as Two Four-Card Sections

C and F keep a one-finger root quality while the left degree moves from I to IV. G/B then fixes degree V and raises two right-hand fingers for first inversion; G7 keeps degree V and opens four fingers. This four-card section separates a degree-only move from a quality-only comparison.

Am changes to degree VI, the minor wrist world and one finger. Dm7 stays in the minor world but moves to degree II and three fingers. The second G7 returns to degree V, major world and four fingers before C closes on degree I, major world and one finger.

The complete state must remain stable for about 350 milliseconds. After confirmation, a short lock gives you time to prepare the next card. Keep the current pose visible until the active target changes; a correct chord label is not enough when world, quality or octave differs from the stored target.

• Target 1: C — degree 1, major world, 1 right-hand finger, normal octave.
• Target 2: F — degree 4, major world, 1 right-hand finger, normal octave.
• Target 3: G/B — degree 5, major world, 2 right-hand fingers, normal octave.
• Target 4: G7 — degree 5, major world, 4 right-hand fingers, normal octave.
• Target 5: Am — degree 6, minor world, 1 right-hand finger, normal octave.
• Target 6: Dm7 — degree 2, minor world, 3 right-hand fingers, normal octave.
• Target 7: G7 — degree 5, major world, 4 right-hand fingers, normal octave.
• Target 8: C — degree 1, major world, 1 right-hand finger, normal octave.

Keep Syncopated Energy Out of the Camera Pose

Ragtime suggests bounce, yet the tracker needs stable evidence rather than a bouncing wrist. Keep the palms separated and let the metronome supply motion. Prepare degree first, wrist world second and right-hand quality third, then hold the complete state until the card changes.

Use the G/B-to-G7 pair as a controlled right-hand test. Both cards use degree V and the major world, so the left hand should remain still while the right changes from two visible fingers to four. If the displayed degree moves, reset the left hand before repeating the comparison.

At the section break, preview Am without rushing. Rotate into the minor world only after degree VI is readable, then show one quality finger. That deliberate reset prevents the ragtime context from turning into uncontrolled arm motion.

Test Two Roads Back to the Same G7

The first G7 follows G/B, so only the right-hand quality changes. The second follows Dm7, so degree II becomes V, the wrist turns from minor to major and three fingers become four. Reaching the same G7 from these different states is the lesson's repeatability test.

For a representative degree test, move C to F while keeping the right hand at one finger and the wrist major. For a world test, compare F with Am: change degree IV to VI and major to minor without adding inversion or seventh fingers.

For the boundary case, extend the right thumb on the final C. The stored target is normal octave, so the page should not confirm until the thumb is folded. This proves register is checked even though no valid card uses a low octave.

Complete One Accurate The Entertainer Control Pass

Restart the lesson and finish all eight cards without Skip. Watch the degree, world, quality and octave chips, use the section break to prepare the fifth target, and keep the final C visible until the completion state appears.

Success means eight accurate browser control states, not a performance or transcription of The Entertainer. If the 96 BPM reference causes rushed shapes, turn it off, master the transitions and restore it only when every target remains readable.

If labels flicker, improve front lighting, camera distance, wrist visibility and finger separation. If labels are stable but audio is delayed, troubleshoot the browser output path instead of changing the pose. Stop after practice so the camera track closes; frames remain on this device and no microphone is requested.
