Narrative framework

The structural pattern this video runs on

Framework

The Universal In-Between Skit

Dramatizing a highly specific but universally experienced transitional moment (downtime between events) that culminates in a universally agreed-upon default behavior.

  1. 1

    The State Transition

    Characters verbally and physically shift from an active state to a resting state, validating the premise of the hook.

  2. 2

    The Micro-Tasking

    Characters engage in highly specific, low-energy tasks that viewers universally associate with this specific type of downtime.

  3. 3

    The Boundary Setting

    Characters confirm the exact parameters (usually time) of their current resting state to justify fully settling into the environment.

Transcript

My god. I, like, need wrong time. No, Sam. I feel like I haven't been on my phone all day. I can't wait to edit my photos. Can you AirDrop me the photos from lunch? Of course. Also, what time do we have to get dinner tonight? Not until 07:30. Oh my god. We have, like, three hours. Do you watch some TV? What channels do you think they have? Shorting.
