Step 1: Read the Right Reference Files

Before writing, check which domain and style apply, then read the relevant reference files:

If the domain is...	Read
Tech, AI, LLM, Software, Coding	references/tech-ai.md
Gaming, Esports, Game Reviews	references/gaming.md
Healthcare, Medical, Mental Health	references/healthcare.md
Finance, Business, Investing, Crypto	references/finance.md
Real Estate, Property, Architecture	references/real-estate.md
Fashion, Beauty, Lifestyle, Luxury	references/fashion-beauty.md
Food, Cooking, Recipes, Restaurants	references/food-cooking.md
Spirituality, Wellness, Mindfulness	references/spirituality-wellness.md
SaaS, Product Demos, Startups	references/saas-product.md
Sports, Fitness, Training	references/sports-fitness.md
Science, Space, Nature, Environment	references/science-space.md
Marketing, Advertising, Branding	references/marketing.md
Education, E-Learning, Tutorials	references/education.md
Any domain not listed above	Use built-in knowledge + style rules below

Always read the style rules section below regardless of domain.

---

Step 2: Analyze the Idea

Silently determine these before writing a single word:

2A — Detect Format

Signal in Prompt	Format
"Short", "Reel", "TikTok", under 90s	Short-form
"YouTube", "video essay", no length given + complex topic	YouTube Long-form
"Corporate", "training", "onboarding", "explainer for clients"	Corporate/Training
"podcast", "interview", "conversation"	Podcast-style

2B — Detect Style

Look for keywords, tone of request, and subject matter:

Style	When to Use
Cinematic / Documentary	History, science, investigative, nature, "the story of X"
Vlog / Talking Head	Personal experience, opinion, day-in-life, reviews
Faceless / AI Voiceover	User says "no face", "AI voice", listicles, anonymous explainers
News / Journalistic	Breaking topics, current events, analysis, "what happened with X"
Podcast / Interview	Two-person conversations, expert breakdowns, Q&A formats
Motivational / Hype	Self-improvement, entrepreneurship, fitness, mindset content
Satirical / Comedy	Parody, roasts, absurd takes, "hot takes", entertainment
ASMR / Calm & Slow	Meditation, journaling, food content, peaceful tutorials

If the user specifies a style explicitly, always honor it. If unclear, infer from the topic and domain.

2C — Detect Length

Idea Type	Estimated Duration
Single tip, meme-adjacent, one concept	30–60 seconds (Short)
Listicle, quick tutorial, explainer	3–7 minutes
Deep dive, essay, review, case study	8–15 minutes
Documentary, full course module	15–25 minutes
Corporate intro / product demo	2–4 minutes
Training module	6–12 minutes

Step 3: Write the Full Production Package

Use the template below. Never skip any section. Adapt tone and language to the detected style.

Style Execution Rules

🎬 Cinematic / Documentary

• Open with a wide establishing shot + ambient sound note
• Narration is measured, weighty — like a Netflix narrator
• Use act structure: Act 1 (Setup) → Act 2 (Conflict/Tension) → Act 3 (Resolution)
• B-roll is specific and visual: "Golden hour shot of an empty factory floor"
• Music swells at emotional peaks — note this in STYLE NOTEs
• Avoid "Hey guys" — open with a statement or a question to the universe

📹 Vlog / Talking Head

• Start mid-sentence or mid-action ("So I just got back from...")
• Casual, first-person, conversational — like talking to a friend
• Reaction moments matter: note "[laugh here]", "[pause, look at camera]"
• B-roll = what they're actually doing (packing, cooking, commuting)
• Authenticity over polish — imperfections are part of the style

🤖 Faceless / AI Voiceover

• No "I" statements — write in second person or third person
• Script must sound great read aloud by a neutral voice — no slang, no jokes that need delivery
• Every sentence needs a visual counterpart — nothing abstract
• Sentences short. Punchy. Clear. Under 15 words where possible.
• Listicle structure works best: "Number 5 will surprise you"
• B-roll must be ultra-specific: "Stock footage: aerial drone over Manhattan at night"

📰 News / Journalistic

• Open with the who/what/when/where in the first 10 seconds
• Anchor delivery: clear, neutral, authoritative — no filler words
• Use inverted pyramid: most important info first
• Expert quote slots: "[CUT TO: Expert soundbite — 10 seconds]"
• Caption: breaking news chyron style — "DEVELOPING: [headline]"
• End with: "We'll continue to follow this story..."

🎙️ Podcast / Interview

• Write both host and guest lines if interview format
• Host: short questions, good listening cues ("[nod] Right, and...")
• Guest: longer, story-driven answers
• Timestamp markers every 5–7 minutes for chapter editing
• Note: "[Clip this moment for Shorts]" on strong standalone quotes
• Outro includes "Where can people find you?" segment

💪 Motivational / Hype

• Open with a bold, confrontational statement: "You're playing small. And you know it."
• Short punchy sentences. Hammer the rhythm.
• Use "you" aggressively — every line speaks to the viewer directly
• Build to a crescendo — emotion should peak in the final third
• Music note: cinematic build, silence before the big moment
• End on a challenge, not a request: "So what are you waiting for?"

😂 Satirical / Comedy

• The premise IS the joke — state it deadpan, let it breathe
• Note comedic timing: "[pause 2 seconds]", "[cut immediately]", "[zoom in slowly]"
• Absurdist B-roll suggestions encouraged: "Stock footage: man typing furiously, cut to: cat on keyboard"
• Subvert expectations in every section — set up → subvert
• CTA can be self-aware/ironic: "Subscribe. Or don't. We're not your mom."
• Avoid explaining the joke — ever

🌿 ASMR / Calm & Slow

• Narration is soft, close-mic, unhurried — note "[soft voice]", "[whisper]"
• Long pauses are intentional: "[3 second pause]"
• Ambient sound is a character: "Sound of rain on window", "Gentle keyboard clicks"
• No hard cuts — crossfade everything
• Sensory language: describe textures, temperatures, sensations
• No urgency in the CTA: "Whenever you're ready, there's more below"

---

Universal Script Quality Rules

• Say it like you'd say it — read every line aloud before finalizing. If it sounds stiff, rewrite it.
• Specificity over generality — "ChatGPT-4o" not "AI", "$4,200/month" not "a lot of money"
• Earn every second — if a section doesn't teach, entertain, or emotionally move the viewer, cut it
• Name the viewer — use "you" to create intimacy (except in News/Journalistic style)
• Vary rhythm — short sentence. Then a longer one that gives the brain room to absorb. Then short again.
• Show, don't tell — always pair abstract narration with concrete B-roll
• One idea per section — if you're explaining two things, split into two sections
