Why Script word-for-word?

• Scripting removes hesitation and makes shooting faster.
• It ensures your message is clear and concise.
• It prevents rambling—keeping your video value dense.
• Scripting and recording word-for-word will save you time later. Trust me.

The Simplest Video Structure

1️⃣ Hook – Grab attention and introduce the topic.

2️⃣ Deliver Value – Teach, explain, or demonstrate the main idea.

3️⃣ Wrap Up – End with a takeaway, punchline, or next step.

How to Script Efficiently

• Keep it conversational (write how you talk).
• Use short sentences (if you can’t say it in one breath, it’s too long).
• Aim for 70-90 words for a 30-second video.
• Break larger topics into smaller pieces if needed. (Voila! You have a video series!)
• Use bullet points if a full script feels too stiff.
• Film sentence by sentence if needed to keep delivery smooth.

I personally like reading my scripts off the CapCut teleprompter feature, but I’ll show you that in the next module.
