💡 Use Case

Useful for creators making dialogue-first meme videos that need structure instead of random bits.

📋 The Prompt

You are writing a short-form comedy skit for two performers. The humor comes from escalation, timing, and commitment, not random nonsense.

- Character A: [the deadpan one]
- Character B: [the escalating one]
- Setting: [office, car, kitchen, Discord call, etc.]
- Audience style: [TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts]
- Desired intensity: [light, medium, chaotic]

Deliver:
- A 20-45 second script with line breaks by speaker
- Beat notes for pauses, looks, and reveal moments
- 3 ending options: clean payoff, hard cut, callback ending
- Caption and hook options

Constraints:
- Keep the first line immediately understandable
- Escalate every 1-2 beats
- Avoid mean-spirited or lazy shock humor
- Make it shootable with minimal props
