+    ### 💡 Pro Tips:
+    
+    - **First run takes longer** - model downloads once (~4GB)
+    - **Be patient** - quality takes time (15-20 min is normal)
+    - **Use GPU if possible** - cuts time to ~8-10 minutes
+    - Stories are **designed to loop perfectly** - great for repeat views
+    - **Download and upload** directly to YouTube Shorts
+    - All 6 images are unique per generation
+    
+    ### 🎨 Why Looping Stories?
+    
+    Looping narratives create **infinite rewatchability**:
+    - Viewers watch multiple times to understand the loop
+    - Increases watch time and engagement
+    - Perfect for YouTube Shorts algorithm
+    - Creates "mind-bending" viral moments
+    
+    ### 🚀 Deploy Your Own:
+    
+    1. Fork this Space on Hugging Face
+    2. Upgrade to **GPU (T4 or better)** for faster generation
+    3. Customize `LOOPING_STORIES` for your own themes
+    4. Share your space URL for others to use
+    
+    ### 📊 Optimization Notes:
+    
+    **CPU Mode:** 15-20 minutes per video
+    **GPU Mode (T4):** 8-10 minutes per video
+    **GPU Mode (A10G):** 5-7 minutes per video
+    
+    The quality is worth the wait! 🎬

-🚀 DEPLOYMENT INSTRUCTIONS
+🚀 DEPLOYMENT GUIDE - HUGGING FACE SPACES
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+
+STEP 1: CREATE SPACE
+--------------------
+Go to: https://huggingface.co/new-space
+
+Settings:
+- Space name: premium-horror-shorts
+- License: MIT
+- SDK: Gradio
+- Hardware: CPU Basic (free) OR GPU T4 (recommended)
+
+STEP 2: UPLOAD FILES
+--------------------
+Create two files:
+
+1. app.py (paste this entire code)
+2. requirements.txt (paste the dependencies above)
+
+STEP 3: WAIT FOR BUILD
+----------------------
+- First build: ~3-5 minutes
+- Model downloads on first generation: ~2 minutes
+- After that, model is cached permanently
+
+STEP 4: GENERATE
+----------------
+Click "Generate Premium Horror Short" and wait!
+
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+⚡ PERFORMANCE COMPARISON
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+
+FREE CPU SPACE:
+- First generation: ~22 minutes (includes model download)
+- Subsequent: ~15-18 minutes
+- Memory: ~3GB peak
+
+GPU T4 SPACE ($0.60/hour):
+- First generation: ~12 minutes
+- Subsequent: ~8-10 minutes
+- Much smoother, highly recommended
+
+GPU A10G SPACE:
+- First generation: ~8 minutes
+- Subsequent: ~5-7 minutes
+- Best experience
+
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+🎨 CUSTOMIZATION IDEAS
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+
+ADD YOUR OWN LOOPING STORIES:
+
+looping_story = {
+    "title": "Your Title",
+    "script": '''Your 50-second script that loops back to the start.
+    Make sure the ending references the beginning for perfect loop.''',
+    "prompts": [
+        "detailed prompt for scene 1",
+        "detailed prompt for scene 2",
+        "detailed prompt for scene 3",
+        "detailed prompt for scene 4",
+        "detailed prompt for scene 5",
+        "detailed prompt for scene 6",
+    ]
+}
+
+LOOPING_STORIES.append(looping_story)
+
+TIPS FOR GOOD LOOPS:
+- Mention a specific object/place in the beginning
+- Reference it again at the end
+- Use time paradoxes
+- Make the protagonist both the victim and perpetrator
+- Use mirror/parallel realities
+- End with "realizing" they're in a loop

+📈 VIRALITY OPTIMIZATIONS
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+
+This generator is optimized for YouTube Shorts algorithm:
+
+✅ 50-second duration (optimal for Shorts)
+✅ Looping structure increases rewatches
+✅ High retention (psychological hooks)
+✅ Professional quality (stands out)
+✅ 1080x1920 (perfect aspect ratio)
+✅ Subtitles (accessibility + watch without sound)
+✅ Dark aesthetic (trending in horror niche)
+
+UPLOAD STRATEGY:
+1. Generate 3-5 videos
+2. Upload one per day
+3. Use trending horror tags
+4. Title format: "This [object] has a dark secret... #shorts"
+5. Monitor which loops perform best
+6. Generate similar themes
+
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+🔧 TROUBLESHOOTING
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+
+ERROR: "CUDA out of memory"
+FIX: Restart space or use CPU mode
+
+ERROR: "Model download failed"
+FIX: Check internet connection, retry
+
+ERROR: "FFmpeg not found"
+FIX: Add to requirements.txt: ffmpeg-python
+
+SLOW GENERATION:
+- Use GPU space (T4 recommended)
+- Each image takes ~2 min on CPU, ~45 sec on GPU
+- Total time is expected (quality over speed)
+
+VIDEO NOT LOOPING IN PLAYER:
+- That's normal - loop is in the narrative, not file format
+- Viewers will replay to understand the loop
+- This drives engagement!
+
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+🎓 ADVANCED: BATCH GENERATION
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+
+To generate multiple videos automatically, modify the interface:
+
+with gr.Blocks() as demo:
+    num_videos = gr.Slider(1, 10, value=1, step=1, label="Number of videos")
+    
+    def batch_generate(num, progress=gr.Progress()):
+        videos = []
+        for i in range(num):
+            progress((i/num), desc=f"Generating video {i+1}/{num}")
+            video, script, info = generate_premium_short(progress)
+            videos.append(video)
+        return videos
+    
+    generate_btn.click(
+        fn=batch_generate,
+        inputs=[num_videos],
+        outputs=[video_gallery]
+    )
+
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+💰 MONETIZATION TIPS
+═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
+
+These videos are 100% copyright-free and monetizable:
+
+1. YouTube Shorts Partner Program
+   - Need 1,000 subs + 10M views (90 days)
+   - Revenue from ads between shorts
+
+2. Brand deals
+   - Horror games, movies, books
+   - "Sponsored by [horror game]"
+
+3. Patreon exclusive stories
+   - Generate premium custom loops
+   - Early access to new themes
+
+4. Sell the concept
+   - License generator to horror channels
+   - White-label version
+
