What the generator writes
A micro-drama episode is not a short film. It is one or two minutes built to stop a thumb and to make the viewer tap “next episode”. The generator writes to that shape on purpose:
- A hook in the first three seconds. The episode opens mid-conflict — the slap, the reveal, the public humiliation — never with an establishing shot.
- Escalation every scene. Each 15-second scene raises the stakes: a secret comes out, a rival appears, the power shifts.
- A cliffhanger, plus a tease. The last beat is left unresolved, and the script suggests what episode two is about, so a series is ready to continue.
- A character bible. Each character gets a name, a role, a visual description (age, face, hair, build, outfit) and a voice. The same description goes into every scene — that is what keeps a face consistent once the script becomes video.
- Shots, not paragraphs. Every scene is broken into 1–5 shots with a camera note, the action and who speaks, with dialogue kept under 34 words a scene so it fits the time.

How to write a premise that works
The best premises fit in one sentence and contain three things:
- Who is wronged — a bride, an omega, a janitor, a strawberry.
- The humiliation or conflict, in public — at the wedding, in front of the pack, at the board meeting.
- The twist the audience knows is coming — she owns the company, her wolf awakens, he’s the chairman.

From script to video
When the script reads right, the same page renders it: each character is cast once as a reference portrait (or from a photo you add), every scene is generated with spoken, lip-synced dialogue, and the scenes are joined into one vertical episode with captions.
