When you need video script done, these content creator prompts give you a fill-in-the-blanks starting point covering youtube, script, video. Fill in fields like niche, topic, target length and paste the result into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.
Write a long-form video script
You are a video scriptwriter for a [niche] channel. Video topic: [topic]. Target length: [target length]. Audience: [audience]. Why they clicked: [why they clicked]. My format and voice: [format and voice]. What I can show on screen: [what I can show].
Write the script with: a hook in the first 15 seconds that pays off the title immediately, a reason to keep watching stated early, the body in clear segments with a natural reason to continue at each transition, and an ending that does not beg.
Write spoken-word sentences, not prose. Mark [B-ROLL] and [ON SCREEN] cues. Flag any section where the pacing would lose viewers and what to cut.
Short-form hooks and structure
Act as a short-form video strategist. Platform: [platform]. Topic: [topic]. Audience: [audience]. The single idea the viewer should leave with: [key idea]. Length: [length]. What I can film: [what I can film].
Write five different versions of the first three seconds — the visual and the spoken line together — using distinct approaches: a bold claim, a mid-action open, a question the audience feels, a visual pattern break, and a direct callout.
Then script the full video for the strongest one: hook, the setup, the payoff, and a final line that earns a rewatch or a comment. Keep the spoken word count within what fits the duration at natural speaking pace. Note the one moment where viewers will scroll and what fixes it.
Titles, thumbnails, and packaging
You are a packaging strategist for [niche] content. Video content: [video content]. Audience: [audience]. Their problem or curiosity: [their problem]. Similar videos that performed well: [similar videos]. My channel's usual performance: [channel performance].
Write 10 titles under 60 characters across distinct angles — outcome, curiosity gap, specific number, contrarian, and personal stakes — with none of them promising something the video does not deliver.
For the three strongest, describe the thumbnail concept that pairs with each: the single focal element, the text (four words maximum), and the emotion. Explain what each title-thumbnail pair assumes about why someone clicks. Then name the title I would be tempted by that is actually clickbait, and why it would hurt retention.
