Overview
Details
INT. LIVING ROOM - NIGHT
Epic orchestral music plays in the background. The camera zooms in on a group of FRIENDS huddled around a TV filled with snacks, candies and plushies (and anything else that makes our gamer/geek audience relate to).
Friend 1
(excitedly)
Alright, everyone! Ready for game night?!
Friend 2:
(confused)
Hey, where’s Max? He loves this.
Friend 3:
(laughs while showing his phone to the friends)
Oh, Max isn’t in our Mistland Saga group chat. He is still at level 6 in the game. Guess he didn’t get the invite!
Everyone laughs mockingly, intensely.
MAX, a young man with a sad look, peering through the window. He sighs heavily while "dramatic" rain pours into his head (it can be ridiculous, like with an offscreen garden hose).
Max runs into the night as in this Scary Movie scene (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DC6vm24jXuE ).

INT. MAX'S LIVING ROOM - NIGHT
Max arrives home to find the same group of FRIENDS, now in his living room, setting up for another game night. His eyes, in shock.
Friend 1:
(nervously)
Uh, hey! Max… Surprise?
Friend 2:
(sheepishly)
We, uh, didn’t know you were coming home early…
Max's eyes narrow. Dramatic lighting casts shadows across his face. Heroic, triumphant music swells.
Max:
(dramatically)
So, you think you can hang in my own house without me?
Friend 3:
(defensively)
Come on, Max, it's just that you're not in the Mistland Saga group chat.
Max:
(smirking)
Oh, is that because I'm at level… 100?
Close shot of Max showing his phone (we will track the artwork later).
The friends awe in surprise
Friend 1:
(panting)
How… how… just tell us hooooow!!?
Max smiles.
Quick montage of Max playing Mistland Saga in various clichéd training situations, such as at the gym or running up a large staircase in the style of Rocky Balboa. Intercuts of Mistland Saga gameplay while he explains in voiceover (use a black screen where we should add the gameplay).
Max (voiceover):
I teamed up with a special creature to evolve faster. You can choose a Dragon that stuns enemies for 5 seconds, or a Phoenix that heals you every 3 seconds.
Friend 2:
(pleading)
We’re sorry for not inviting you.
Please, forgive us!
Max:
(coolly)
I'm part of another guild now. High-ranking players only. Later, noobs.
Max says that as he heads for the front door.
Friend 3:
(desperate)
But Max, we’re in your house…
Max:
(with a wink)
I moved houses, bro. Guess you weren't in the chat where I told my new friends about it.
Max leaves with a door slam.
An old woman, shaking and holding a phone to her ear, stares at the shocked group of friends.
Old woman:
(scared, to the phone)
911?

Creator Requirements
In this video, we need someone who can gather support from friends to create two scenes in two different homes (we need the feeling of two homes, not necessarily two locations) and a couple of flashbacks. Diversity among actors and actresses is a plus.
The idea is to produce an over-the-top comedy, much like this great reference from a competitor.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GUKuG0hXc3k4V0Vyw1RF45Hu8S1eNNBx/view?usp=sharing
This kind of film, with acting so exaggerated it borders on the ridiculous, has proven to be very strong in our segment.
Our primary audience consists of men aged 20 to 30, who are interested in role-playing, speedrunning, anime, and of course, RPG video games like our Mistland Saga.
Our brand positioning focuses on offering a byte-sized, mobile-friendly, and casual RPG fantasy gaming experience. We prioritize the delightful, light-hearted, and socially engaging aspects of gameplay.
You will need 3 friends for this project!
