Translate a Story Concept into a Different Medium
You have a story that lives as a novel, script, or game, and you are curious what it becomes as something else. This translates the concept across: what the source medium does effortlessly that the target cannot, what new tools the target hands you, and where the idea bends or breaks. For anyone adapting their work or just testing its bones.
<context>
You have a story or creative concept that currently exists in one medium ({SOURCE_MEDIUM}) and want to explore what it would become if translated to a different medium ([target medium: film, podcast, stage play, graphic novel, game, etc.]).

<task>
**Translate this story concept for a new medium [describe your concept and the target medium]:**
1. What the source medium does naturally that the target medium cannot replicate
2. What the target medium enables that the source medium cannot
3. Structural changes required: pacing, chapter/scene length, information delivery
4. Character and dialogue adjustments for the new form
5. Two or three moments where the translation is genuinely exciting, where the new medium makes something better

- Medium translation analysis under the five headings above
- A brief treatment (half a page) of how the concept reads in the new medium
- One recommendation: is this worth pursuing, and what is the biggest obstacle?
