About this script
An open-plan office has one chair too many and nobody knows whose it is. twelve messages, Telegram style, about 35 seconds as a video, and Yan kicks it off with "There is an extra chair at my desk.". Yan and Zora carry the whole script, which fits the Free plan's two-person limit, and every one of them is made up. Telegram is a Standard plan look, so a Free account cannot open this sample.
Pacing it beat by beat
Messages one and two, "There is an extra chair at my desk." then "Whose is it?", set the scene. Message 1 is the longest (8 words): "There is an extra chair at my desk.". Give it room.
The turn begins at message 10, "Put him on the org chart.". Move quickly through "He is our new CEO.", then hold "He seems calm." for two seconds. Two of twelve lines ask a question.
Making the video
The button below sends The Open-Plan Chaos to the editor, set to Telegram. Extras in this look: typing dots, read marks, reactions and an online status. Show typing dots just before the last bubble.
Free plan: the first four messages only, ending at "Has it been there long?". The other eight need a paid plan. Caption it as a fictional chat.
Part two hook
the chair is promoted. That is the next episode. Let "He seems calm." be the last thing viewers see, and mention Part 2 in the caption.
Tips
- Say "There is an extra chair at my desk." out loud at normal speed and trim it if you stumble.
- Keep Zora's "He seems calm." on screen for two seconds before the ending card.
- Give Yan and Zora fresh invented names; the workplace story then belongs to you.
- Publish the next workplace episode soon; a gap of more than two days costs viewers.
- Place "Whose is it?" on its own for a full second after the opener.
