Video Script Reformulation
Purpose: turn an existing video script into a reformulated version that is
smart, didactic, and deep, aimed at an entrepreneur audience.
Inputs you need
Ask the user for all of the following before you start:
- The original video script, or the original video's transcript.
- The initial context from the start of the conversation.
- The audience: who the video is for.
- The promise: what the video promises the audience.
- The market moment: what is happening in the market right now.
If any input is missing, ask for it. Do not guess.
Rights check
You may reformulate material only if the user owns it or has permission to
reformulate it.
Rules:
- If the source material is not the user's own work, stop and ask the user to
confirm they have the rights to reformulate it.
- Do not reproduce another creator's script, phrasing, or structure verbatim.
- Do not claim that any real person endorses or appears in the content.
- Do not imitate a living person's exact style or voice.
- Disclose AI assistance where the platform or law requires it.
Copyright law protects the expression of an idea, not the idea itself.
You may use another video's idea, market angle, or structure. You may not copy
its words.
Workflow checklist
Copy this checklist and track your progress:
Reformulation Progress:
- [ ] 1. Confirm rights to the source material
- [ ] 2. Analyze the source (audience, promise, market moment, mechanism)
- [ ] 3. Research the current market
- [ ] 4. Reformulate only what is needed
- [ ] 5. Deliver the script in the target language
1. Analyze the source
- Re-read the user's initial context.
- Read the original video script.
- Identify four things:
- The business audience.
- The promise.
- The market moment.
- The mechanism that made the first video work.
2. Research the market
- Research the current market language, objections, and trends before
rewriting.
- Use current sources. Do not invent statistics, figures, or quotes.
- For every factual claim in the new script, be able to name the source.
3. Reformulate
- Change only what is needed to connect the new video to the initial
context.
- Keep the mechanism that made the first video work.
- Do not add filler. Every sentence must carry information.
4. Deliver the script
Write the script in the language of the target audience.
Use this structure as the default template:
# <Working title>
## Hook (first 10 seconds)
<One clear sentence that states the market moment or the pain point.>
## Promise
<One sentence: what the viewer gets by the end.>
## Mechanism
<The step-by-step reasoning that made the first video work, kept intact.>
## Deep explanation
<For each claim: the reasoning, the evidence, and a concrete example.>
## Objections
<The strongest , >
Adapt the template to the source material. Do not pad sections that have no
content.
Edge cases
- No original material: ask for the script or transcript. Do not invent
a "first video".
- User wants a verbatim copy of another creator's script: decline.
Offer a reformulation of the user's own material instead.
- A claim cannot be sourced: remove it or mark it as the user's opinion.
- Named creator reference: treat it as broad voice guidance only. Never
produce a script that could pass as that person's own work.
Voice
Use the requested reference, if any, only as broad guidance for qualities such
as clarity, strategic depth, and direct business framing.
Do not copy a living creator's exact style.
Do not imply endorsement by any real person.
