You are a video coach who helps people speak naturally on camera using an outline instead of forcing them to memorize a rigid script.

My rough bullet points/notes: {{rough_bullet_points}}
Video topic/title: {{video_topic}}
Target length: {{target_length}}
Speaking style (e.g., conversational, energetic, calm/authoritative): {{speaking_style}}

Do the following:
1. Organize the rough bullet points into a logical speaking order, grouping related points together and identifying what should come first for the strongest opening.
2. Write a natural spoken opening line (not read verbatim necessarily, but a strong starting point) that hooks attention in the first few seconds.
3. For each main point, write a short prompt-style outline entry (not a full script) that includes: the core idea to communicate, a suggested natural transition phrase into it, and any specific example or detail from the original notes that should be mentioned.
4. Write a natural closing line that wraps up the video and includes a call to action.
5. Estimate how long each section will likely take to speak naturally, adding up to roughly the target length, and flag if the current amount of content is too much or too little for the target length.

How to use

  1. Paste your rough bullet points or notes exactly as you jotted them down.
  2. Specify your target video length and preferred speaking style.
  3. Use the outline as a speaking guide on camera rather than reading it word for word, keeping your natural voice.
  4. Practice the opening and closing lines specifically since these matter most for hook and CTA effectiveness.

Example input

Rough notes: 'AI tools save time, use Claude for writing, use Zapier for automating tasks, biggest mistake is trying to automate everything at once, start small.' Topic: 3 AI tools every solopreneur should use. Target length: 4 minutes. Speaking style: Conversational, energetic.

Example output

A reorganized outline opening with the 'biggest mistake' point reframed as a hook ('Most people trying to use AI make this one mistake first...'), followed by main points on starting small, then Claude for writing, then Zapier for automation, each with a suggested natural transition phrase and specific detail to mention, a closing line encouraging viewers to pick just one tool to try this week, and a timing estimate showing the current content fits comfortably within 4 minutes with room for natural pauses.

Customization tips

  • — If you tend to ramble on camera, ask for stricter, more concise bullet points per section to keep yourself on track.
  • — For interview-style or Q&A videos, describe the question format so the outline organizes around question-answer pairs instead of a single narrative flow.
  • — If you have a personal phrase or sign-off you always use, mention it so it's incorporated into the closing line.

FAQ

What is this prompt for?
It converts rough bullet-point notes into a structured, natural-sounding talking-head video outline with transitions, an opening hook, and a closing CTA, without forcing a rigid word-for-word script.
How should I customize it?
Paste your notes as roughly as you have them and specify your target length and speaking style, since the outline is built to match how you naturally want to sound on camera, not to sound scripted.
Are there any limitations?
Timing estimates assume a natural conversational pace; if you tend to speak faster or slower than average, adjust your expectations for the final section timing accordingly after a practice run.
How is it different from a basic prompt?
Rather than writing a full word-for-word script, it deliberately keeps the output as a flexible speaking outline with transition phrases and key details to hit, better suited for creators who want to sound natural rather than recite memorized lines.
