Two friends who cannot find a place to meet. Made with DeckTalk in four sections, from the script below.

It installs uv, then DeckTalk, and never runs sudo. Two more lines make a first film, with placeholder narration and no key.

Each ## N. heading is one cut of the film. A [beat] is a short pause and is not spoken. The underlined words are cue phrases: a picture on the slide lands on each one.
2. Halfway 0:06
Halfway finds the fair spot. [beat] Type two addresses. [beat] We drop a pin where it takes you both the same time, [beat] at a place worth the trip. [beat] Twenty minutes for her. [beat] Twenty minutes for you.
3. Last month 0:22
Last month, fourteen thousand people met in the middle. [beat] Coffee. [beat] Lunch. [beat] One first date [beat] that became a second.
4. This year 0:31
This year, five more cities, [beat] and one more seat at the table. [beat] Halfway. [beat] Meet in the middle.
The edit
Section 3 first said "eleven thousand". Changing it to "fourteen thousand" voiced and recorded that section again and kept the other three. Hear both takes and see the four changes on How it works. The front page plays the hero cut, taken before the edit, so it still says "eleven thousand", and it trims section 4 to its last two cues. The film before the edit is 0:39.
Halfway is not a product. It was written for this film, and its numbers are invented.
Next: how it was made, install DeckTalk, read the quickstart, or watch uv, end to end, a 3:16 tutorial made the same way.
