To get the most compelling 15-second YouTube Short that drives long-form views:
- Clarify Your Core Transformation:
Be clear on the end result you want to showcase in the opening 3 seconds. Think: before/after, visual shift, or powerful outcome. - Know Your Viewer’s Pain or Desire:
Identify the top emotional driver your audience is feeling—whether it's frustration, aspiration, or urgency. This fuels your emotional escalation. - Define Your Unique Edge:
What’s the one insight, method, or truth your long-form content reveals that others miss? This becomes your curiosity hook. - Gather Proof Points:
Prepare any data, testimonials, or visual credibility elements that support your claim. Even a single number can spark trust. - Decide on Your Brand Style:
Pick 2–3 adjectives that describe your visual and voice tone (e.g., bold, minimalist, gritty, cinematic). This ensures the short matches your overall brand presence. - Use the Interview Prompt:
Paste the prompt into the GPT field and answer the questions one by one. Don’t rush. Each answer sharpens the script. - Review + Deploy:
Once the script is generated, pair it with high-contrast visuals and fast-paced editing. Then, link it directly to your long-form video in the description or pinned comment.
