What You Can Do

You can generate complete trailer scripts optimized for specific platforms, audience personas, and business objectives.

Example Output

YouTube Pre-Roll (15 seconds) — Casual Audience:

[8-12s] STORY: "Build your legend. Break the rules."
[12-15s] CTA: "Wishlist now on Steam" (end card appears)

Steam Store (90 seconds) — Hardcore Audience:

code
[0-5s] COLD OPEN: Director's cut of emotional climax (no spoilers)
[5-25s] WORLD BUILD: Lore, setting, three distinct regions shown
[25-50s] MECHANICS: Deep-dive on progression system, skill trees, combat depth
[50-70s] NARRATIVE ARC: Character motivation, story stakes, three-act structure hint
[70-85s] SOCIAL PROOF: "From the studio that made [acclaimed title]"
[85-90s] CTA: "Wishlist to get launch notifications. Early access 2025."

TikTok Loop (20 seconds) — Gen Z Casual:

code
[0-3s] TREND AUDIO HOOK: Trending sound starts, character react-face to camera
[3-15s] GAMEPLAY LOOP: One satisfying mechanic repeated (combat/building/puzzle solve)
[15-18s] TEXT OVERLAY: "POV: You just unlocked [unique ability]"
[18-20s] IMPLICIT CTA: Link in bio emoji + game title
