I know it's called an "episode", but less than 900 words? Is that it? More like a fragment. A scenario-ette. It could be made something by intense, poetic, inspired use of language. But that's not the case here.
You're exactly right. I don't get to expand on the language for these scenes..
I see that the challenge of the video-script is that everything in the story has to be driven by what you can see. I can't write about how characters feel or their motivations; that has to be shown in the action or something that the camera can focus on. And the action has to come pretty quickly. In my experience, most of the videos produced run like 9-15 minutes. Sometimes, I receive complaints that I have too much preamble in my scenes.
