Sophie wears a white dress and a white masquerade mask, while Benedict has his arms on her shoulders while wearing a black button down. They gaze into each other's eyes, with the words "Unmask True Love" above them and the title at the bottom of the image Daniel will show you how to dramatize and sprinkle in the right amount of plot, character and story for a one-hour show.
