I want the performers to understand the message clearly. What should a buyer include in a custom video brief, and which details are most useful for pronunciation, tone, dialogue, a photo and a requested funny performance idea?

Official answer: include the recipient's name, pronunciation, occasion, relationship if relevant, the main message, the preferred tone and any exact dialogue or custom script. Keep the brief organised so the important line is easy to identify. An optional recipient photo and performance idea can be added where the selected product accepts them.
If the name is pronounced unusually, write a simple pronunciation guide instead of assuming the spelling is enough. For a birthday message, identify the birthday person's name and the exact greeting. For a proposal, love message, anniversary or congratulations video, state the emotional tone and the wording that should not be changed.
Avoid sending passwords, payment details, identity documents, private account information or anything that the performers do not need. A useful brief contains the performance instructions, not unrelated personal data. If an inside joke could be misunderstood, explain it briefly and keep the requested action suitable and safe.
If a photo is included, use a clear image of the intended recipient and explain who is shown. When a photo is supplied, the team can print it for the performance; the exact on-camera treatment follows the selected style. A photo is optional and should only be included when the selected product accepts it.
A practical order-brief structure is: recipient name; pronunciation; occasion; exact message or script; tone; optional photo; and any requested performance idea. The current ordering guide is available at https://prankwish.com/how-to-order.
