Alex Cattoni breaks down three steps for short-form video scripts: hook first to stop the scroll, nail the opening three seconds with no fluff, then outline talking points instead of writing full sentences so you sound natural.
Here's my simple process for writing short form video scripts. Number one, figure out your hook first. Without a strong hook, no one will watch it. Number two, keep the first three seconds juicy. Cut straight to the chase. No fluff, no intro. Deliver on what you promised. Time is money. And number three, map out talking points, but omit a formal script. Remember, you want your videos to feel flowy and conversational, not forced and scripted. And that's it.
