The background is a soft, light grey wall, suggesting an indoor, well-lit environment. Soft, even lighting illuminates his face and hair, creating gentle shadows. Initially, he has a slightly uncertain or quizzical expression, then he raises his right hand to touch the side of his head, subtly adjusting his hair near his temple, hinting at the upcoming styling process. The text overlay 'How to get the Jake Gyllenhaal look in seconds...' remains prominently displayed in the lower center of the frame, linking this visual directly to the initial query.

The background is intentionally blurred, showing the same male subject from the previous scene, out of focus, implying he is the demonstrator. The lighting is bright and even, meticulously highlighting the product details and its texture. A white text overlay in a classic serif font reads, 'Step 1: semi-damp hair + Glacial Clay Pomade', providing clear instructions. The camera subtly shifts its focus and framing, moving from a tight close-up on the product to a slightly wider shot of the man holding it, whose face is now marginally more in focus, revealing his blue denim shirt and a light grey background.

This immediately cuts to a close-up of his hands, held up to the camera, fingers spread, vigorously rubbing them together as if demonstrating how to melt down a product. His hands have a light skin tone. Then, the text changes to 'Step 3: massage deeply from root to tip', and the shot shifts to an over-the-shoulder view of the man, focusing on his hands vigorously massaging the product into his damp, dark hair. His fingers are deeply worked into his scalp and hair, showing a thorough application process. The camera remains static during each sub-segment, but the quick cuts create a sense of action and clear instruction.

He uses both hands to smooth and shape the hair on the back and sides of his head, ensuring even distribution of the product. His expression is concentrated, looking slightly to the side as he meticulously focuses on the styling task. The lighting is consistent, providing even illumination across his face and hair, creating soft highlights on his dark hair. A white text overlay at the bottom reads, 'Step 4: don't forget the back and sides', reinforcing the instructional nature of the video.

He brings his hands up to his beard, running his fingers through it to tame and style it, demonstrating a final grooming step to complete the 'look.' His expression is focused and diligent during this action. A white text overlay states, 'Step 5: tame the beard if ya want', offering an optional, personalized touch.
