Narrative framework

The structural pattern this video runs on

Framework

The Absurd Escalation

Creating humor and satisfaction by solving a relatable, everyday problem with an unexpectedly and disproportionately powerful, often futuristic, solution.

  1. 1

    The Inciting Conflict

    An external threat is abruptly introduced, often via a quick cut to a visual representing the problem (e.g., a static image), which shatters the protagonist's initial state and elicits a reaction of shock and surprise.

  2. 2

    The Power Pivot

    The protagonist's emotion shifts from shock to determination, immediately followed by a cut to a visual of an absurdly powerful and unexpected asset, which completely subverts audience expectations for how the conflict will be resolved.
