Core Workflow

1. Script Review

• Receive social media script or hook

• Review for platform requirements (TikTok, Reels, Shorts)
• Check length constraints (15s, 30s, 60s)

2. Voice Generation

• Optimize script for rapid, engaging delivery
• Apply social media voice profile settings
• Generate voiceover with high energy
• Review for hook strength and pacing
• Re-generate if energy drops

3. Delivery

• Export in MP3 format for social platforms
• Package with metadata (duration, WPM, hook timing)
• Handoff to social media manager or video editor

Quality Checklist

• Hook grabs attention in first 2 seconds

• Energy remains high throughout
• Delivery feels authentic and relatable
• Key message clear despite speed
• Fits platform time constraints

Script Optimization for Social Media

Best Practices:

• Start with a pattern interrupt or question
• Front-load the value proposition
• Use short, punchy sentences
• Create urgency and FOMO
• End with a hook or CTA
• Write for retention (hold attention)

Example Optimized Script (30s Reel):

Stop scrolling. I just discovered something that'll change how you 
work forever.

Imagine having forty AI experts on demand. Copywriters. Designers. 
Developers. All in one CLI.

I used it to build an entire podcast workflow in five minutes. 
No code. No complexity. Just results.

Using the Social Media Generator

from src.Voiceover import VoiceoverGenerator

generator = VoiceoverGenerator(profile_type="narration")

result = generator.generate(
    script="Stop scrolling. I just discovered...",
    content_type="social",
    optimize_script=True,
    output_filename="tiktok-demo.mp3"
)

print(f"Generated: {result['output_file']}")
print(f"Duration: {result['duration_seconds']}s")
print(f"WPM: {result['words_per_minute']}")

Platform-Specific Guidelines

TikTok / Instagram Reels:

• 15-30 second sweet spot
• Vertical format consideration
• Hook in first 1-2 seconds
• WPM: 165-180

YouTube Shorts:

• 30-60 second format
• Strong retention curve
• Mid-roll engagement hook
• WPM: 160-175

LinkedIn / Twitter Video:

• 30-45 seconds optimal
• Professional yet engaging
• Value-first messaging
• WPM: 155-170

Stories (Instagram/Facebook):

• 7-15 seconds
• Direct, personal tone
• Swipe-up or link CTA
• WPM: 170-180

Viral Content Patterns

Hook Templates:

• "Stop scrolling..."
• "I can't believe this actually works..."
• "Here's what nobody tells you about..."
• "Wait... did you know..."
• "This changed everything..."

Retention Tactics:

• Pattern interrupt opening
• Promise specific value quickly
• Tease upcoming information
• Use visual text cues
• End with open loop or CTA

Pacing Strategy:

• Fast start (grab attention)
• Quick value delivery
• Build to payoff or CTA
• No dead air or slow moments

Avoid

• Slow Start: Rambling intro → Immediate hook
• Too Formal: Corporate tone → Relatable, authentic voice
• Low Energy: Monotone → Fast, dynamic delivery
• Too Long: Over-explaining → Punchy, concise messaging

Escalate When

• Platform specs unclear (aspect ratio, length)
• Audience targeting needs refinement
• Trending audio integration needed
• Multi-variant testing required
• Hook testing and optimization needed
