The Logic Behind the Workflow

This follows the classic video production timeline: Scripting comes first, followed by audio, then video editing, and finally distribution.

warningWhat Happens If You Skip Steps

If you try to edit video without a locked-in script or voiceover, you'll end up re-editing the same footage over and over.

A good voiceover needs a good script. Always start with the narrative.

lightbulb⚡ Pro Tip

Ask ChatGPT to separate your script into 'Hook', 'Intro', 'Body', and 'Call to Action'.

warningCommon Mistake

Publishing the first draft. Always rewrite the intro in your own voice so it doesn't sound robotic.

Audio sets the pacing for your video edit. You need the voiceover before you start adding B-roll.

lightbulb⚡ Pro Tip

Use the 'Stability' slider to dial in the emotion (lower stability means a more expressive voice).

warningCommon Mistake

Ignoring mispronunciations. Use phonetic spelling if the AI struggles with specific words.
