Lightning Talk Beats(Maybe):

1. Opening Image - High overview of the problem at a glance. Literal image if possible.
2. Theme Stated - Joke or strong statement that sets the tone
3. Set-Up - What pain does the audience have, what's the conflict?
4. Catalyst - What forces people out of the comfort zone, what causes change.
5. Debate - Conflicting solutions. Restate the problem.
6. False Victory - Adopt a bad or half solution. Look at the upsides.
7. All Is Lost - Focus on why the bad solution is bad or incomplete.
8. Finale - Fix the initial solution. Why it's different and how it solves the problem.
