# Reels Scripting

## Inputs

Accept a video, transcript, reference URL, notes, or source article/newsletter.

If the host can inspect the supplied media or public reference, analyze it. If not, ask for a transcript or description rather than fabricating observations.

## Reverse-engineer the reference

Capture:

- first 1 to 3 second hook
- pacing
- scene or beat count
- average sentence length
- visual reset points
- proof or payoff
- ending behavior

Copy the underlying pattern, not distinctive wording.

## Build the new script

Return:

- hook
- beat-by-beat voiceover
- on-screen text
- visual direction
- cut or reset cues
- final line
- estimated spoken duration range

Keep the language natural to speech. Do not write like a LinkedIn post with line breaks read aloud.
