💡 Vision

Nite Brite: A late-night show for the TikTok generation.

A comedy-forward, creator-powered, phone-first variety show — filmed in a studio, cut for every screen.

🎬 The Problem

  • Traditional late-night TV’s delivery model misses Gen Z and Millennials, who identify more with creators and influencers.

  • Internet creators have massive audiences but no consistent, credible home to showcase them.

  • Audiences crave authenticity, chaotic energy, and short-form speed — but still love high-quality, well-produced entertainment.

✅ The Solution

Nite Brite is a hybrid late-night format built for this era:

  • Shot live-to-tape in front of a real studio audience

  • Livestreamed on YouTube each night as a “Live Premiere” at 10–11 PM

  • Horizontal first (TV-ready), vertical second (shorts-first optimization)

  • Cast features viral comedians, performers, and creators

  • Guests include internet icons, rising stars, and select mainstream celebs

  • Fast-paced segments, pre-taped sketches, audience interaction, and creator-driven games

Think Fallon meets Hot Ones meets YouTube-native chaos — all with an actual live audience and a masterfully edited final product.

📱 Multi-Platform Strategy

Each 30–50 min episode becomes:

  • 1 full-length YouTube Premiere (horizontal)

  • 3–4 horizontal, 5–15 min YouTube videos (segments, sketches, deep dives)

  • 10–20+ vertical short-form videos for Shorts, TikTok, Reels, etc.

Posted daily across platforms.

One week of shows = a content empire.

Longform, shortform, reaction fodder, meme fuel, and monetizable IP.

📈 The Market Opportunity

  • Short-form is the dominant discovery engine: TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels.

  • Late-night still commands prestige: Fallon, SNL, Hot Ones, etc.

  • YouTube as a platform now competes with Netflix for Gen Z’s attention.

  • There’s no consistent late-night energy show that blends internet culture + real production value.

  • Nite Brite lives at that intersection — and it’s wide open.

🚀 Traction

  • 20M+ views on short-form comedy videos

  • Daily posting schedule in place

  • Strong cast chemistry (20+ episodes already created together)

  • Recurring segments already tested with viral success

  • Audience growth and engagement trending up across platforms

  • Creative team includes real working comedians, musicians, and digital-native writers

  • Pilot sketches already built for spin-off potential

💰 What We Need

🚀 Phase 1: Pilot Season

Ask: $800K–$1.2M

  • 10–12 weeks of horizontal episodes (live-to-tape, 5 nights/week)

  • Livestream premieres on YouTube + real-time social rollout

  • Sketches, audience games, and creator-driven guests

  • Lean, high-quality crew and gear package

  • Editing pipeline to produce 50+ full episodes and 200+ vertical clips

  • Dedicated short-form content team for TikTok, Reels, Shorts, etc.

  • Press launch + paid growth strategy to build awareness

  • Proof of concept at scale—traction, engagement, virality, and brand validation

💥 Full Season: Flagship Rollout

Ask: $5M

  • 30–40 week season, 5 nights/week

  • All the polish of traditional late-night for 1/8 the cost

  • Fully monetizable, YouTube-first distribution model

  • Dozens of vertical clips per week across TikTok, Reels, Shorts, Facebook

  • Original characters, ownable sketch IP, recurring formats

  • Touring extensions, branded merch, and membership/subscription models

  • Talent development pipeline for creators and collaborators

  • Platform for new shows to spin off—Nite Brite becomes a content studio

  • Competes with $40M/year legacy late-night at a fraction of the cost

💎 Why This Could Be Worth Millions

  • Every episode is a portfolio of assets: Longform shows + dozens of vertical videos = scale, visibility, and monetization

  • Built to go viral: From format to guest curation to pacing, we’re engineering every moment for shareability

  • Borrowed audience model: Each guest promotes their episode, bringing their followers with them

  • IP we own: Pre-taped sketches and characters are pilotable, brandable, and spin-off ready

  • Monetizable ecosystem: Ads, sponsorships, merch, licensing, brand integrations, subscription-based bonus content

  • More than a show: Nite Brite is a content factory, IP incubator, and cultural launchpad—designed to grow into a brand that spans live events, licensing, merch, and more.

  • $100M+ potential: With 5 episodes a week, 100+ short-form clips, owned IP, and multi-platform monetization, Nite Brite is built to scale into a nine-figure content empire within 5 years

  • Exit potential: With our model proven, a streamer could easily license or acquire Nite Brite for high 7–8 figures

🔮 Why This Still Works — Even With AI Rising

  • AI can generate scripts, visuals, even fake performers — but it can’t replace human chemistry, live audience reactions, or the magic of real people connecting on stage.

  • Nite Brite is built around authenticity, chaos, and charisma — the very things AI can’t replicate.

  • Real creators. Real crowds. Real-time cultural relevance.

  • And ironically, AI-generated content makes shows like this more valuable by flooding the internet with soulless content — which increases demand for premium, real human entertainment.

Late-night is evolving — not dying.

And we’re first to market with a model that scales, monetizes, and delivers.
