THE REFERENCE — APPLE — THE ORIGINAL FACETIME AD

THE PROMPT — COPY, SWAP THE BRACKETS, RUN

HeyGen build. AVATAR: woman, mid-20s, messy bun, hoodie — holding-phone selfie angle, slightly too close to the lens, walking-around energy, framing imperfect on purpose. SETTING: apartment hallway or kitchen, warm cluttered background, natural light. Delivery: breathless best-friend urgency, talking over herself, zero polish.

SCRIPT (word-for-word):
Line 1 (blurted, mid-breath): "Oh my god, you picked up — okay, listen."
Line 2 (walking, gesturing): "Remember how you were literally just complaining about [PAIN POINT — e.g. "your bank fees"]? I found the thing."
Line 3 (slowing down to land it): "It's called [PRODUCT — e.g. "Ledgr, a $9/mo budgeting app"]. No — listen. [CORE BENEFIT — e.g. "It found $140 of subscriptions I forgot about"]. I did it this morning. Took [TIMEFRAME — e.g. "ten minutes"]."
Line 4 (already moving on): "I'm sending you the link right now. Check your texts."
Line 5 (leaning way too close to the lens): "Bye. CHECK YOUR TEXTS."

ASSEMBLY (CapCut): open with 1 full second of the incoming-FaceTime screen — contact name "[FIRST NAME — e.g. "Maddie"]" with a green heart, Accept and Decline buttons — the ringing screen is the scroll-stopper hook. Hard cut to the avatar with the full FaceTime UI overlaid: running call timer, mute/flip buttons, your own face small in the corner PiP. Vertical 9:16. No captions baked into the HeyGen render.

HOW TO RUN IT

  1. FaceTime UI overlay templates are in CapCut
  2. Open with the incoming-call screen for 1s — that's the scroll-stopper
  3. Follow immediately with the iMessage-screenshot static as ad #2 in sequence
