Grow Your Podcast on RUclips Workshop: creatorscience.co/play I added a link to a couple of George's scriptwriting resources to the video description. Check them out! And if you enjoy this video, a little thumbs up goes a long way. 👍
I've been enjoying The Retention Hub and newsletter since the start of this year, and looking forward to your course :) I ramble too much when "winging it" in my motorsports educational content...with scripting I can lay out the "factual progression" of my topic, but I experience heaps of writer's block when trying to come up with a helpful metaphor or story to simplify an idea or tee up the next key point. I don't feel confident (yet) that the additions I think of help or convince the viewer to stick with me through the video but I'm trying and learning one attempt at a time😅
Hey George. How do you go about scripting for content where you can’t know exactly what is going to happen. I’m a landscape photographer, and can only rough out how a shoot will go I may have a good idea of what I’m going to cover. But things evolve during the shoot. And as I am live in the field reading from a script or prompts just does not work. What would you suggest.
@@KameTrick that's it mate, it's all about repetitions, reflecting on the results, seeing what the graphs do and going from there! Appreciate your support on TRH and the newsletter 🙏
Hey@@BrianNorthmorePhotography, I'm gonna copy and paste an adaptation of a comment I wrote in response to someone else here as this is great question! I work with an entertainment client for whom unexpected surprises are a common occurrence. It's more than ok to incorporate those moments into the story of course, but the key thing we focus on is ensuring a constant stream of progression of information. If there's a segment that unexpectedly took an hour longer than planned, we'll often summarise that segment in a 5 second voiceover, or even cut entire segments that don't contribute to the story. It sounds like the "writing" for your type of content should happen 10% before filming and 90% after, as opposed to a simple talking head video where it's 100% before :) The TL;DR is that using voiceover and heavier cutting in post-production is how we craft the story out of the footage we have, regardless of whether it went the way we expected. I hope that helps!
Legitimately can't believe you gave this one away for free. Listened to it as a podcast and stopped halfway to start it over here to screen cap and take notes. This feels like creator SCIENCE.
Million $ idea…. George should start a school and train people to do what he does and start an agency. There is certainly a need for it for us all. I always loved Ed’s videos from Photo Booth and was always impressed with his writing and lay outs. I had no idea he was paying someone to write the script. So worth it. So much time energy and $ goes into producing videos.
this is pure gold! As a newbie, I find it so overwhelming to be good at all the parts that go into producing a video. so far I have not scripted my videos, I just improvised and the result would sometimes be super confusing or just random. Being a writer myself I now have the idea of how I could use this skill to make my videos more engaging and informative. Thank you for sharing all the tips!
This is perfect timing! I've always just "winged" my content in the past and my channels are slowly dying 🙃 but i think actually doing all the pre-production stuff like scriptwriting and making a title and thumbnail beforehand will help revive them. Thanks for the great content!
12:19 aritest is free flowing, in the zone no critiques. 12:49 Architects: eliminates the idea ane start to flesh out the structure-> question point outline 13:41 writer: start connecting the dots in between key points and the grand payoff. There needs to be something Progressing, Regressing or Changing at anypoint of the script What is the goal? What does success look like? What does failure look like? -> obstacles? Emotion they might feel from success or failure. Free flow writing 15:42 wizard: now thinking of retention-> highlight where the audience will go oh or learn something new. Then see the visual structure of script and re arrange for a good flow of build up and payoff
Your RUclips channel is absolutely amazing.The content you create is both entertaining and informative,Keep up the fantastic work, you're doing a fantastic job. Your hard work and dedication are truly inspiring. Keep shining and reaching new heights 🙏🏻
This is great, I love this topic. Script writing for youtube is such a interesting niche! I'm adding this to my playlist and listening to it first thing at work tomorrow.
@@jay I tried to watch this at work the next day and it was so packed full of info I wanted to stop every minute to take notes! haha. Watched it that night and took notes. One of the most useful interviews I've ever listened to, thanks for all your work. Really appreciate you taking a lot of these guys that might be more accessible through twitter and email lists, and putting them in a format\packaging that makes it convenient for someone like me to listen to. I've listened to a video of yours more than once because it was so dense with value. That's actually how I remembered about this comment. I'm back re listening to this video again!
These were some awesome insights into scriptwriting. I definitely suffered from being too pragmatic that retention suffered cause of it. Thank you for this interview!
You can tell Mr Blacklan really cares and loves what he does. The end of that video is a killer. Indeed, more scriptwriting content. Now i follow both of hou ❤ from Belgium 🇧🇪
ive learned so much from you and your guests that has elevated my approach. plus I Love how you nailed the meta CTA in the end. thank you so much for giving us so much
I'm saving this. Thank you so much, awesome content delivered in a perfect way. Jay you should be much higher in views and subscribers, and I believe you'll get there if you keep up with this
If it's so difficult still to get a writer, especially one that can nail a certain creator's style, how would someone learn and improve our own script abilities? What are some good resources?
I was on the verge of giving up because I just didn't know what I had to do, to make good videos. Everybody was giving vague tips about nothing and that didn't help at all. This really motivated me to keep trying. I took notes the whole video and I can't wait to put the knowledge to use! Thank you!
Step one the artist - creating bubble areas on a plan. Step two the architect - creating a (floor)plan and framing plan for the bubbles. Step three the writer - continuing with the analogy, writing in the dimensions of the plan to connect wall "A" with wall "B". Step 4 the wizard hat, as an interior designer (although that's not what my channel is about) its when I relate the plan to the customer in a way that suits their lifestyle, aesthetics, and needs, only revealing what is necessary in the moment but in a super interesting and relatable way so as not to create a sense of overwhelm-meant- ie I guess that's where the avatar comes in. Cool.
I am here again after watching one of your podcast video. I followed every alternative tip but nothing really worked. I wish this scripting will seriously help in growing my channel.
As an editor, yes references are a fantastic way to get started, but to truly understand "why" a reference works and not only to look at "what" is being done and then just copying that requires experience. If you would just copy the "what" but you don't understand the "why" your video would likely lack soul. Working with an avatar here makes sense too, as you would in the process constantly think about "Who am I editing this for?" and "Will they engage with the way this is edited?".
Really great video Jay and George. Thank you. Jay, I really appreciate the structure and effort clearly put into this- it's rare to see it done so well in an interview format.
I found your content through RUclips, and I can already tell I should really go back through the audio podcast archives as there's bound to be tons of value waiting for me. I've watched at least 7 of your recent interviews and you're knocking it out of the park for creator and creative guests in the RUclips space. Keep up the great work!
This video is so helpful. Thank you both. Jay, I have just discovered your channel recently and love your approach to interviewing. Would love to hear if you have tips on how to apply the techniques in this video to a video podcast about leadership that is an interview style.
17:30 That is a GREAT question!! That is my problem. I am very direct and efficient with my answers/ ideas and my topic turns out to be super short. This is really going to help me.
Love hearing the insight. Would like to hear more about timing and placement of CTA's etc. For instance if I am writing a 90 page movie script, in the first 10 minutes have to reveal an inciting incident. Between 11 and 30 minutes the protagonist needs to embark on the journey. Page 31 to 70 minutes the character has set-backs, 71 to 85 overcomes the odds and wins... etc.
Such a great video! Can't remember the last time I watch a full 30 mins on youtube 👏 I was way too blunt in my last video, it was just under 4 minutes and my retention was way low compared to my other videos. I'm gonna get to writing with these new ideas Thanks again!
I am a brand new creator. I often hear people talk about consistency as far as how often I should post. However, if I go along with what they are talking about here I for one feel comfortable making LESS videos LESS often, BUT..... I can spend my time creating much better quality videos that people will watch longer and have an increased watch time simply by doing all these things! Speaking only for myself, I am not in a rush to make money, at least not by my video views. I can pursue other avenues of revenue like merchandise or affiliate marketing, etc....
This was VERY helpful. I stopped and started it to take notes. Also, I wonder how you get your sound. Is it just the mic, or do you have to do fancy stuff in the editing room?
Even though I listened to the entire breakdown on how to use a CTA at the end, and then watched you apply that to me in the audience… I sat there thinking “…dammit” because it actually inspired me to continue watching that next video😂 👏🏼 well done, thank you!
Revelatory! As a small YT er and journo I finally feel like I can meld my skills! Excited to experiment on the material I'm currenty editing 😊 Thanks so much guys 🙏 Can't wait to crack on 👍👌👏
Do you have hard data that priming the audience with something coming up leads to longer watch times? Because honestly when someone says "I'm going to come back to that" or "make sure to keep watching because of x" I typically just skip ahead in the video to that section since they let me know the actual content of the video is coming later. You can even see in many of Film Booth / Creator Booth's videos, if you hover over the timeline, it will show you to where people clicked the most / most replayed, and it's usually at the useful part. Isn't this the direct opposite of what you want to happen, get people to watch more? Instead, they're watching less and skipping ahead to the point of the video rather than watching the 7 minutes of fluff surrounding it.
This was really, really helpful. Very practical feedback and I'm really excited to incorporate the tip of writing in an engaging way to make our viewers feel smart. I'm wondering if you have any tips for the end call to action when you don't have a lot of great videos to link to yet?

Amazing video. Now I know I’ve got to work on three things for my channel to get to the next level: thumbnails, script writing, and editing Until this point I’ve just been winging the videos so the watch time is pretty low More work to be done
Can you please break down this process more with live examples of what you are explaining by using a mind map and using a real life example of the concept being applied by writing the script
These are valuable insights, but I’m struggling to see how these ideas can fit in the niche I want to get into. I plan on eventually starting a Chinese language learning channel. I want to make it unlike any other language learning content out there. Hopefully it can be both entertaining and educational, and also bingeable. But I don’t know how I can ideas like having a payout at the end into a video whose ultimate goal is to have the audience learn a language.

Sounds good in terms of super fine expression at plus scripts has stand out beyond the level.
Excellent interview, thanks.

As a RUclips Scriptwriter, I find this really helpful, oh and if you're looking for a Scriptwriter I'm definitely available😂
How did you learn?
do you feel like the idea of waiting to deliver payoff (and giving mini payoffs throughout) also applies to writing? Newsletters or blog posts?
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:00 📝 Writing a RUclips video script for better videos
- A RUclips video script typically includes a hook, content, and a call to action.
- The hook grabs the audience's attention by explaining what they'll gain from watching.
- Content makes up the bulk of the script, covering the main topics.
- The call to action encourages engagement, like asking viewers to like and comment.
02:19 📜 Two ways to write a script: word for word or bullet points
- Writing word for word is good for beginners or those uncomfortable freestyling.
- Bullet points work well for people who can freestyle and provide flexibility while speaking.
04:42 🗒️ Bullet points for freestyling content
- Bullet points are ideal for those comfortable speaking without a full script.
- They provide flexibility and allow you to focus on key points while speaking.
07:07 👍 Increase engagement by incorporating call to action in the middle
- Encourage likes and comments in the middle of your video to boost audience engagement.
- Tease what's coming up in the video to keep viewers interested and watching until the end.
