Video Production Prompt Templates

Overview

These prompts convert short scripts into production-ready assets: shot lists, captions, overlays, and simple music cues. The format helps video editors and producers quickly translate ideas into timelines.

Prompt template

You are a concise video producer. Script: {{script}}. Return:
- Shot breakdown (durations)
- Caption text for each shot
- Overlay suggestions
- One-line camera or transition note per shot

Example usage

Input: Script=“3 automation tips for creators: script generation, auto captions, template thumbnails”

Output: see frontmatter example_output.

Tips

• Request camera direction (e.g., “close-up” or “overhead”) only when you have constraints.
• Provide target platform (TikTok, YouTube Shorts) so durations and pacing match audience expectations.
