My prompt: Write a script for a 30-second TV commercial for the Wine Berskerkers Forum, in the style of a 1970s beer commercial.
Chat GPT’s output:
[Scene opens with a group of friends gathered around a table, laughing and clinking glasses filled with wine.]
[Upbeat rock music starts playing in the background, as the camera zooms in on a man with a bushy mustache, wearing a colorful patterned shirt and bell-bottom pants, holding a wine glass.]
Mustachioed Man: “Hey there, fellow wine lovers! Are you tired of the same old wine snobbery? Then it’s time to join the Wine Berskerkers Forum!”
[Cut to a close-up of a woman with big curly hair and a wide-brimmed hat, swirling a glass of red wine.]
Curly-Haired Woman: “That’s right! Wine Berskerkers is the grooviest online community for wine enthusiasts who are all about good vibes, good times, and great wine!”
[Quick shots of friends clinking glasses, pouring wine, and enjoying a feast of delicious food.]
Mustachioed Man: “And the best part? It’s totally free to join, man!”
[Cut to a group of friends dancing and celebrating with bottles of wine in hand, while the rock music reaches a crescendo.]
Rockin’ Voiceover: “So, if you’re ready to break free from the stuffy wine scene and join a community that’s all about passion, flavor, and fun, head on over to Wine Berskerkers Forum!”
[The screen fades to black, and the Wine Berskerkers Forum logo appears, accompanied by the tagline “Wine Lovers Unite!”]
Rockin’ Voiceover: “Wine Berskerkers Forum. Where wine lovers let their hair down and raise a glass to the good life! Cheers, baby!”
[The commercial ends with a shot of friends clinking glasses and laughing, as the rock music fades out.]
[Voiceover disclaimer at the bottom of the screen: “Must be 21 or older to join. Drink responsibly.”]
[End of commercial.]
Editorial commentary - My recollection of 1970s beer commercials conjures up a lot fewer hippies saying “groovy” and “man” and more NFL stars and mountain streams but it’s not half bad.
