Scripts
Short-form video scripts, built in four steps. Studio, then Hooks, then the Scripts tab.
The builder
Opening a script slides in a full-height sheet with a stepper. Each step saves as you go, so you can leave and come back.
- Title and topic: what this is about
- Reference video: an optional video from Inspiration whose structure you want to borrow
- Hook: an optional hook from Hooks to open with
- Framework and input: how it should be structured, and what it is built from
Then Generate.
Frameworks
| Framework | Shape |
|---|---|
problem_agitate_solve | Name the pain, make it hurt, resolve it. The default, and it works |
hero_journey | Where you were, what changed, where you are now |
listicle | N things, numbered |
myth_bust | Everyone believes X, here is why X is wrong |
tutorial | How to do a specific thing |
storytime | One story, told properly |
Input modes
| Mode | Use when |
|---|---|
from_idea | You have a one-line idea and want it expanded. The default |
from_outline | You have the beats and want them written up |
polish_draft | You wrote something and want it tightened |
polish_draft is underused. Writing a rough version yourself and having it tightened produces something much closer to your voice than generating from nothing.
Statuses
draft while you work on it, final when you finalise it.
Then what
Send to drafts turns a finalised script into a draft in Planning, where it goes through the normal approve and schedule path.
Recording and editing are yours. Postlyra writes the words.
Where scripts come from
- Started fresh here
- Start script on an idea in the Library, instead of promoting it to a draft
- Write script from a hook
- New script from a saved video in Inspiration
The reference video
Worth using. Picking a video that performed well and generating against its structure produces something shaped like a thing that already worked, in your voice about your topic.
You are borrowing the structure, not the content.
A note on length
Short-form scripts should be 30 to 45 seconds spoken, which is much less text than it looks like on screen. Read the output aloud with a timer before you accept it.
