Hook and payoff

The promise the opener makes, and how the video pays it back

Hook

An on-screen text overlay presents a strong, humorous, or niche identity statement that a specific audience can immediately relate to, establishing the 'why' of the video before the action begins.

Payoff

A final scene that places the completed object or result in its intended, ideal environment. This provides a sense of arrival, completes the narrative arc, and answers the implicit question, 'What was this all for?'
