Try It Yourself
(Our template, not the creator's prompts. His are shown as images in the article.) Write a 45-second vertical short for [brand] with two cartoon characters, a founder and a skeptic. First 1.5 seconds: the founder states [problem] in big text and promises [payoff] at the end. Then the problem one beat at a time with a counter in the corner, the skeptic asking what the viewer thinks. Around 20 seconds: screen goes dark, the expert says one word. Last 5 seconds: the fix, with one 3-second real-looking clip of [proof moment]. End card: comment [KEYWORD]. About 3 words per second.

Full write-up & sources
More detail: Every short follows one skeleton: a hook in the first 1.5 seconds that promises a payoff, the problem beat by beat with a counter in the corner and a skeptic voicing the viewer's doubts, a dark beat around 20 seconds where the expert says one word, then the fix in the last 5 seconds and an end card asking for a comment keyword. He cuts each short into versions with new hooks and spreads them across 25+ TikTok and Instagram accounts.
Results: He says each short takes about 6 minutes. No earnings are shared.
