Video outline

  1. State a challenging premise
  2. Provide normalizing evidence
  3. Conclude via subversion

Hook overview

An on-screen text overlay makes a simple, declarative statement about an identity or role, which implicitly challenges a societal norm or stereotype, compelling the viewer to see the 'proof'.

Title hook

this is what a girl coaching boys looks like

Visual hook

The opening shot features a young woman standing confidently with her arms crossed among a team of tall male athletes on the sidelines of a busy volleyball tournament, creating immediate visual contrast and establishing the video's theme.

Hook strategies

  1. opinions-polarization
  2. curiosity-open-loops

Payoff

The video ends abruptly or loops without a distinct climax or resolution. This lack of a dramatic conclusion is the payoff itself, forcing the viewer to internalize that the initial, potentially provocative premise is, in fact, a perfectly normal reality.

Narrative framework

The Normalization Montage

Narrative framework logic

To present a statement that may be perceived as challenging a norm, and then use a montage of mundane, everyday visuals to prove that the statement describes a normal, unremarkable reality. Engagement is driven by the subversion of expected drama.
