Scripts for short videos that people watch to the end.
TikTok, Reels, Shorts. 15 to 90 seconds.
Ask an agent for a script and you get the same one every time: "Did you know…?", three benefits, "The result? Insane.", a moral at the end. Viewers spot it in a second and swipe. This skill fixes that:
- Payoff first. One idea per video. Write what the viewer gets, then the hook that promises it.
- A hook in three layers. First frame, first line, on-screen text, each with its own job.
- Something new every few seconds. Open loops, a re-hook where retention sags, cut right after the payoff.
- Sounds like a person. AI structures and words banned by name, in English and Spanish.
- Real things only. No invented stats. A missing fact stays marked for you to fill in.

Give a topic. Get a beat-by-beat table (spoken, on-screen text, visual), three alternative hooks and a caption.
Pairs with video-edit: the script's rows become the video's shots.
