Trend Compilation

The Concept

A trend compilation is a snapshot of where the culture is moving—and how fast. It's to curate moments that make viewers feel in sync, nostalgic, or just wide awake to what's happening now. It's not about stacking clips. It's about weaving signals into a story.

Start with a theme, not the algorithm

  • What's the common thread in everything people are posting right now?
  • What vibe, emotion, or obsession is quietly taking over?
  • What are people really saying through these trends—beyond the surface dance or sound?
  • How do these clips reflect what we value, fear, or dream about this month?

Best formats

Montage of short clips with strong transitions / Voice-over narration explaining the trend / Text-on-screen commentary

Structure it as: The hook /The clips /The meaning behind it all /What comes next

Powerful ways to frame it

  • "Here's what everyone's doing this week—whether you've noticed or not."
  • "This trend isn't just random. It's emotional pattern recognition."
  • "These 6 clips explain the internet's current obsession with escapism / girlhood / revenge / self-improvement..."
