๐ฌ Write video scripts with AI
We script and shoot video for clients every week. The scripts that work share one structure โ and AI is very good at that structure once you hand it over. Here's the system for 30โ60 second videos.
The structure every short video needs
- Hook (0โ3s): a question, bold claim, or problem your viewer recognizes.
- Body (3โ45s): one idea, shown not told. Steps, a demo, a before/after.
- Payoff (45โ55s): the result or the lesson in one line.
- CTA (last 5s): one action: follow, call, visit, comment.
The scripting prompt
You are a short-form video scriptwriter. My business: [what you do, where]. Audience: [who watches]. Write a 45-second video script about: [topic]. Format as a two-column table: LEFT = spoken words (conversational, like talking to a neighbor), RIGHT = what's on screen (shots, text overlays). Give me 3 different hooks to choose from first, then the full script using hook placeholder [HOOK].
Make it sound like a person
Read the script out loud once. Anywhere you stumble, tell the AI: "Line 4 sounds written, not spoken โ make it something a real person would say." Repeat until it reads like talk.
Batch your shoots
Generate 10 more video topics for my audience based on this one, ranked by how likely they are to get shares. One line each.
Pick four, script them the same way, and film all four in one session โ same setup, same light, one hour, a month of video.
Phone is fine. Good audio matters more than good camera. A $20 clip-on mic upgrades every video you'll ever make.
