A Minute Before the World Ends

Make a 60-second cinematic sci-fi short built for viral YouTube Shorts and TikTok: in a crowded Los Angeles coffee shop, every phone simultaneously displays a countdown with 60 seconds remaining, but only one barista keeps moving. Open on a macro 85mm shot of espresso crema trembling, whip-pan through anxious faces, then switch to a smooth Steadicam following her behind the counter. Harsh noon sunlight cuts through dusty windows while cool monitor glow shapes the room. She quietly serves one final coffee to a stranger who appears in an old photograph on the wall. Finish with a 16mm overhead shot as time freezes and the espresso machine continues steaming. Hyperreal, tense, emotionally grounded, cinematic sound.
