About this script
A manager sends a memo that bans the Friday feeling. twelve messages, Signal style, about 32 seconds as a video, and Dina kicks it off with "Memo: the Friday feeling is now prohibited.". The cast is Dina and Eli, all invented. Two people, so every plan can show the full cast. This look starts at the Standard plan, which is worth knowing before you plan a batch of stories.
Pacing it beat by beat
Start slow with "Memo: the Friday feeling is now prohibited." and "By whom?". The longest line is message 1, "Memo: the Friday feeling is now prohibited.", at 7 words, so it needs extra screen time.
Speed up at message 10 ("'We feel it anyway.'"), keep "Meeting adjourned." short on screen, and let "Happy Friday." sit. One lines in the script are questions.
Making the video
Open The Friday Feeling Memo in the editor and the Signal look is already chosen. Switch on typing dots, read marks and reactions when you build the scene; an online status are not offered for Signal. Typing dots ahead of the final message make it feel live.
Four messages load on a Free account (the last is "It is joy."), eight more on a paid one. Add a fiction label to the caption.
Part two hook
Next episode: the manager is caught humming. Close this one on "Happy Friday.", write Part 2 in the caption, and answer the first comment with a hint, not the answer.
Tips
- Time yourself reading "Memo: the Friday feeling is now prohibited."; cut words until it sits easily.
- Let "Happy Friday." hang for a beat longer than the other bubbles.
- Swap Dina and Eli for new invented names to make a version that is yours.
- Aim to release Part 2 within a day or two of this one.
- Place "By whom?" on its own for a full second after the opener.
