About this script
A lighthouse keeper and a sailor swap messages at sea. twelve messages, Telegram style, about 32 seconds as a video, and Marnie kicks it off with "Lighthouse to ship. Do you read?". Characters: Marnie and Captain Oak, all invented. Only two people speak, which suits any plan. You need Standard or above to use Telegram; Free accounts will see a prompt to upgrade.
Pacing it beat by beat
The longest bubble, message 1, reads "Lighthouse to ship. Do you read?" (6 words). Open on "Lighthouse to ship. Do you read?" before you reach it.
Finish with "By seagull.", then "The seagulls are on strike.", then a long pause before "Then I will bring it myself.". Questions: two. Everything here can be edited in the ChatsRat editor before you export.
Making the video
Press the button to load The Lighthouse Pen Pals in the editor with the Telegram look. Extras in this look: typing dots, read marks, reactions and an online status. A typing indicator before the final line sells the reveal.
On Free you get four messages, up to "We see your light."; the remaining eight are on paid plans. Say it is fiction in the caption.
Part two hook
For Part 2: the ship docks and the oranges are lemons. End on "Then I will bring it myself." and tell viewers in the caption that the story continues; a small hint in the comments keeps them waiting.

- Rename Marnie and Captain Oak to invented names of your own and it becomes your original version.
