# Duolingo — Chess lessons on iOS

A 21-second square social cut in which a mustachioed cartoon character sits at a chessboard and deadpans five captioned lines announcing chess lessons in Duolingo. The film is one continuous shot with no hard cuts; the only scene change is a dark chess-piece set giving way to a pastel cloud backdrop.
