🎬 Storytelling & Scripting: How I Actually Build My Content
I’ve been reading your replies and DMs, and one thing keeps coming up: “How do you actually script and how you make a storytelling for your content that keeps people engaged?” So here’s how I approach it simple and practical. I don’t sit down and write scripts line by line. I collect inspiration 🧠 Most of it comes from: - Movies 🎥 (pacing, tension, silence) - Reels & short-form (I analyze creators daily and adapt what works to my style) - Lessons my younger self needed to hear earlier - Music 🎶 sometimes one song creates a whole scene in my head Before recording, I ask myself 🤔 What do I want the viewer to feel? Once you know the emotion, the structure is easy: - Hook: create curiosity or tension in the first seconds - Context: why this matters now - Insight: the lesson or realization - Payoff: a line or visual that sticks To keep attention ⁉️ - Cut anything that doesn’t move the story - Change visuals when energy drops - Use pauses and silence on purpose - Say less, but make it hit harder 💥 This is a big skill, so I’ll break down hooks, pacing, and scripting styles in future posts based on what you want to learn next. 👉 What part of storytelling do you struggle with most right now?
