Hook and payoff

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

Narrative framework

The structural pattern this video runs on

Framework

The Deconstructed Performance

To generate humor by showcasing the authentic, chaotic, and relatable process of failure behind an attempt at a serious or formal performance. The narrative is the breakdown of the intended narrative.

  1. 1

    The Formal Premise

    The performers deliver their initial lines seriously, setting up the high-stakes or formal context that will make the subsequent failure more humorous.

  2. 2

    The Inevitable Collapse

    A performer breaks character by laughing, forgetting a line, or making a mistake, abruptly shattering the established reality of the performance.

  3. 3

    The Spiraling Failure

    A rapid succession of failed attempts to restart the scene, where each mistake compounds the humor and makes it harder for the performers to regain composure.

  4. 4

    The Meta-Commentary

    The performers step completely out of character to discuss the scene, their lines, or their characters, giving the audience a 'behind-the-scenes' view of the creative process.
