CONCUSSION PROTOCOL

Verbal hook

@jensen_custis is listed as questionable after sustaining a head injury during yesterday’s action.

Hook and payoff

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

Hook

The opening slide functions as a formal announcement or 'official report'. It uses a bold, high-stakes headline paired with a portrait-style image to create immediate intrigue and concern about a specific subject, compelling the user to swipe for context.

Payoff

The payoff is the reveal itself. The final slide resolves the tension created by the hook by providing the visual 'evidence' or 'replay' of the incident, satisfying the user's curiosity.

  2. 2

    The Evidence Replay

    This slide (Slide 2) provides the answer by showing the causal event. It utilizes 'raw' or authentic-looking visuals (like security footage, screen recordings, or user-generated content) to reveal the backstory, delivering the narrative's punchline or resolution.
