A micro drama series

A vertical series, episode by episode, with the same characters and world.

What you give

The story and the characters.

What you get

Character and world sheets locked once, and episodes that each end on a hook for the next.

Price

Planning is free. Every paid step is priced before it runs.

The brief you paste in the chat

I want to make a vertical micro drama series. The story: [in two sentences: who, what they want, what stands in the way] The characters: [a name and a short description each, and a photo if you have one] The world: [where and when] Genre and tone: [thriller / romance / comedy / drama] How many episodes and how long: [number], [one to two minutes] Language: [Hebrew / English] Every episode ends on a hook for the next, same characters and same world throughout. Show me the series arc, the character sheets and a price per episode first. Show me the plan and one itemized price first, and start only after I approve.

What Cadabra sends to the engine

seedance-25: Night, rain streaking a taxi window, close-up through the glass on the woman from the character sheet, neon blurring behind her, she reads a message and her face goes still, a slow push in, then a hard cut to black on the sound of the door locks. Same face, hair and coat as the sheet.

How it works

Use it when a story does not end in one video: a vertical series, episode after episode, that viewers come back to in order to find out what happened. What holds such a series together is that the characters and the world never change between episodes, and every episode ends on a hook for the next.

How it works: paste the brief with the story in two sentences, the characters, the world, the genre and the number of episodes. First you get the series arc and the character sheets. Before the first shot, a sheet is locked for every character and every place, because a place that is not locked is a different kitchen in every shot, which breaks a film exactly as badly as a drifting face. The price includes these sheets up front, and is shown as a price per episode.

One episode is shot as a film, and each later episode is built from the same sheets, so the cast and the places stay the same. A tip: say in the brief who is wronged in the story and what the lead wants. A short series rides on one moment where viewers realise they misjudged someone, and the brief should hold it.

Questions and answers

How do the characters stay the same between episodes?

Every character is locked in a character sheet before the first shot, and every episode is built from that sheet. So episode two is shot with the same people in the same places.

Can I start with one episode?

Yes. You get the series arc and a price per episode first, and decide on each episode on its own. The price is shown before anything runs.

I have a photo of my lead. Can I use it?

Yes, if they agreed. The photo joins the brief and becomes the base of the character sheet, and every shot is built from it.
