How to steal it

setting · outdoor city
  1. 01
    Hook (0-2s)

    Open cold on outdoor city. Sound on. Visual question in the first frame.

    Brickell · Roll camera before you arrive at Brickell Ave at golden hour or Biscayne Blvd south of 5th. The reveal IS the hook.

  2. 02
    Set the frame (2-4s)

    Establish outdoor city with your hero prop. Wide on the 16mm so the GT3 RS sells the scale.

    Brickell · Keep the prop count to 1. More props = more cuts = lower retention.

  3. 03
    Payoff (4-9s)

    Use direct to camera rant to deliver the rewatch moment. One idea, one take.

    Brickell · Cut on the reaction, not the line. If it's a price reveal, hold the number on screen for 1.5s.

  4. 04
    Reaction / proof (9-13s)

    Show the consequence. Bystander head-turn, valet face, on-screen receipt — whatever makes the payoff feel real.

    Brickell · Casa Tua and Komodo valets are cinematic. E11even paddock for nightlife crowd. Hard Rock paddock during F1 weekend = prebuilt audience.

CTA / outro (13-15s)

Implicit beats explicit. Let the caption + pinned comment ask. End on the asset, not your face.

Brickell · Tag @imalexgunnar in the caption. Pin the objection comment within 60s of posting.

Where in Miami
  • Gas station · Shell SW 8th + Brickell Ave (24/7, premium pump, clean lighting).
  • Valet · Casa Tua, Komodo, E11even — pull-up + handoff is the cinematic moment.
  • Penthouse · Flow Brickell roof or your unit. Skyline backdrop reads premium.
  • Track / paddock · Hard Rock paddock during F1 weekend = pre-built audience.
  • Cold start · Brickell Ave south of 8th at 6:30am — empty street, hard light.
