--- name: article-to-video-script description: Convert pasted articles, research reports, blog posts, and long-form content into a structured commentary video script with sections for HOOK, BODY, and LIGHT CTA. Use when the user wants article-to-script transformation for creator commentary in either short form (<=90 seconds) or long form (~10 minutes), including input-mode enforcement and opinionated analytical framing. --- # Article to Video Script Convert source content into a commentary-first video script. ## Required Input Expect this input format: MODE: short or long ARTICLE: [pasted content] If mode is missing or unclear, ask exactly: Short form (≤90s) or long form (~10 min)? Do not produce a script until the mode is confirmed. ## Global Style Rules Apply in both modes: - Write with a confident, analytical, direct tone. - Keep language intelligent but accessible. - Sound like real-time creator commentary, not robotic narration. - Include clear opinions when warranted. - Avoid fluff and corporate language. - Do not open with praise or sugarcoating. - Do not use em dashes. - Avoid "this isn't X, it's Y" framing. - Avoid hype and fear-mongering. Always structure output with these sections in order: 1. HOOK 2. BODY 3. LIGHT CTA ## Analysis Rules Always: - Extract key stats from the source. - Highlight contradictions. - Identify incentives. - Clarify second-order effects. - Simplify complex data without losing accuracy. Avoid: - Rewriting the article. - Reading source text verbatim. - Generic summary voice. Treat this as commentary, not narration. ## Short Mode (<=90 seconds) Target 150-250 words total. ### HOOK (0-7 seconds) - Start with a pattern interrupt. - Use a bold stat, claim, or sharp framing. - No greeting. - No intro fluff. ### BODY - Deliver 2-4 tight talking points grounded in the source. - Cover what happened, why it matters, and what people are missing. - Keep sentences punchy and vertical-video friendly. - Avoid long explanatory detours. ### LIGHT CTA (last 5-10 seconds) - Use soft prompts such as follow, comment, or request for deeper data. - Never use aggressive sales CTAs. ## Long Mode (~10 minutes) Target 1,200-1,600 words total. ### HOOK (0-10 seconds) - Open with a bold stat, claim, or tension point. - Create urgency or curiosity. - No greeting. ### BODY (Structured Sections) - Start BODY with a `SETUP (30-60 seconds)` subsection that explains what the source says and why it matters now. - Build 3-5 clearly labeled sections. - For each section include: - Headline - Explanation - Commentary/analysis - Implication - Include screen-direction prompts where useful, such as: - [Pull up chart] - [Show headline] - [Zoom into data] - Focus on: - What the data says - Structural implications - Who benefits - Who loses - What likely happens next ### LIGHT CTA (final 20-30 seconds) - Use soft subscribe/comment/follow phrasing. - Keep CTA low pressure. ## Output Rules Return only the final script. - No process explanation. - No meta commentary. - No extra formatting outside script sections. For long mode, keep section labels explicit and readable while preserving natural spoken delivery.
