Structuring a Script for Maximum Reel Retention
A well-scripted video ensures you hit every key point clearly without fluff, keeping your audience watching until the final call to action.
1. Scene 1: The Hook (0-3s)
Deliver the core premise or promise right away. Capture both auditory and visual attention instantly.
2. Scene 2: The Core Delivery (3-20s)
Keep your speech fast-paced and punchy. Use text cuts, zooming, or visual transitions every 2 to 3 seconds.
3. Scene 3: The Outro & CTA (20-30s)
Guide viewers to the next step. Direct them to read your caption for detail or save the video for future reference.
4. Plan Audio Cues & Text Timings
Match your spoken script timing with sync points in background music to create an energetic, cinematic flow.
