This project is a sample Host Prep & Interview Brief created for a long-form faith, leadership, and community interview. The brief includes guest context, episode framing, and conversation design to help the host navigate multiple roles, ministries, and sensitive historical context with clarity and care. My role as a producer is to prepare conversations upstream so complex leadership and faith-based work can be discussed thoughtfully and without oversimplification.

Title: The Artifact (Episode 1: "Home")
Logline: In a world reduced to dust, one man's last inherited object might be the key to something humanity thought was gone forever — a home.
The Artifact follows Jaxson, one of the last people alive in a world where the atmosphere collapsed and civilization was erased down to bare desert. He lives in isolation with his friend James, scavenging meaning from a landscape with nothing left to scavenge — until a single object from his childhood, entrusted to him by his father with the words "when you need a home, you'll find this," turns out to be more than a keepsake.
The pilot opens with Jaxson's own voice defining the stakes of this world: survival without purpose, waiting for an ending rather than living toward anything. That changes the moment he rediscovers the artifact his father gave him. Paired with a map James has been silently piecing together, the two set out across the wasteland to a massive, unnatural circular mark scorched into the desert — a scar too precise to be geological. When Jaxson places the artifact into a socket built to fit it exactly, the ground answers: a buried city rises from beneath the sand, shedding centuries of burial in real time.
The episode ends not with an explanation, but a reveal — deliberately withholding the why. Who built the city? Why was it hidden, and why was the key entrusted to Jaxson's family specifically? Is this discovery a rescue for what's left of humanity, or does it wake something meant to stay buried? James's own unexplained find (the map) raises a second, parallel mystery still unresolved by episode's end, seeding a second character thread beyond Jaxson's.
This pilot is built to expand: the city itself becomes the setting for episode 2, the father's backstory and his connection to the artifact opens a mystery to unravel across the series, and the bond between Jaxson and James — two survivors who've had nothing but each other — gives the show its emotional core as they're forced to navigate whatever they've just uncovered together.
This looks amazing! How did you learn to use Cantina, there's barely any tutorials for it
Edited this interview-style trailer for Blazel took the raw talking-head footage and cut it down into a tighter, more dynamic piece, using kinetic captions and shifting color grades to keep it visually engaging across the different speakers.
