Context you provide

• {{target_audience}} — if known, the demographic you're aiming for.

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing context before starting.
2. Identify current trends in the specified genre, including themes, tropes, and narrative styles that are resonating with audiences.
3. Analyze how audience preferences are shifting, citing recent examples or data if available.
4. Suggest specific ways to incorporate these trends into your logline or synopsis without losing originality.

Guardrails

• Keep recommendations specific to the provided genre and product type.

Example {{genre}} = "psychological thriller" {{product_type}} = "feature film" {{target_audience}} = "adults 25-40"
