You're a Magician and YouTube is Your Stage
But no magician goes to the Stage Unprepared
Follow these 5 tips to script a perfect video for your YouTube audience as a beginner creator:
-Thread-
1. Plan the Title and Thumbnail
Most beginner creators think of the title and the thumbnail at the end
But that's the route to getting low views
Write down at least 5 ideas for the title and thumbnail once you start planning a video
2. Tell Them What They Will Get ASAP
Don't start the video with the channel introduction
Around 40-50% of people leave a video within the first 5-10 seconds
Instead, tell them what they will get from the video
If you're teaching, tell "In this video, you will learn ___"
3. Break it Down in Simple Steps
The next part is the main body of the video
You may jump between different areas and confuse the viewer if you don't write down the key points
Figure out 5-10 bullet points and fill them with necessary details
4. Don't Cram Too Much
Make sure your videos are not longer than 10-12 minutes
It's hard to create a longer video and retain the audience for a long duration, especially for beginners
Make sure you stick to one topic and share the relevant information without making it complex
5. Keep Going
You want the audience to click on your next video through the end screen
But people leave as soon as they sense the video is ending
Your job is to not let me realise it's ending
Don't tell things like "That's it for today" or "These are all the points"
5 Steps to a reliable script for YouTube videos:
1. Plan the title and the thumbnail
2. Tell them what they will get asap
3. Break it down in simple steps
4. Don't cram too much
5. Don't let them guess the ending
That's a wrap!
