Write a script from an idea

Take one clear point from a rough idea to a draft you would actually say aloud.

1. Begin on Home

Use the Home input to describe the idea. Include who it is for and what they should take away. For example: “Show small shop owners how to remove a distracting reflection from a product photo using a phone and window light.”

2. Add useful context

Provide your own experience, the facts the piece should use, and any constraints. Save your voice preferences in Brain. If you want to build the brief first, use the Brain worksheet or guided interview.

3. Shape the opening and draft

Follow the post flow to refine the direction. If you prefer the dedicated Scripts tool, work through its topic, reference, and platform settings. Choose a hook that introduces your point honestly and gives the audience a reason to continue.

4. Edit with a specific goal

Read the result once for meaning and once aloud for voice. Replace generic examples, verify claims, and remove anything you cannot support. In Scripts, use Edit script for direct changes or Apply edits for a requested rewrite. “Shorten the opening and keep the example” is easier to act on than “make it better.”

5. Keep the version you want to use

Save your edits and copy or download the finished draft. Check its spoken length before creating a voice or avatar video. Make a short list of the shots, screenshots, or demonstrations you will need.

See Scripts for hook selection, section edits, Undo, and Regenerate. Continue with Voice & Avatar or Video Editor when the writing is ready.
