How to create a video script?

The first step to creating a video script is to determine what message you would like to convey to your audience in your video. While some videos can be created with just visuals and music, adding a script with audio narration can help you convey your message more clearly, especially for complex topics.

Plan your video into sections and include script text for each section. You can draft your script in a document and import it into our Stories tool or write your script directly in the storyboard or list view for each video segment.

You can also choose to export your script once it’s been written in Stories. Exporting can be beneficial to send the dialogue to a voice narration service or to repurpose it for other materials. You can also use it to create caption files to make your videos more accessible easily.

What is the Stories tool?

Stories is a drag & drop video builder to help streamline video creation with storyboards and scripts. Plan, organize, and build your videos quickly when you start with a storyboard or script, and conveniently toggle between views as you complete your video.

Thanks to our integrated video editor, you can further enhance your video with transitions, effects, text, images, and more. The Stories tool is available on all paid plans.
Should I add scripts in storyboard or list view in Stories?

You can add your video script to either the storyboard or list view and easily toggle between them. In the list view, the primary focus will be on the script text and your notes. You can still add narration, video, audio and more to your script in list view, but the text and direction will be the prominent focus on your screen.

In storyboard view, your script will be accompanied by a large visual thumbnail for each video section. The storyboard view allows for a more visual outline of your video. The script and notes are still viewable in storyboard view, and you can still easily add narration, stock media and more. It will come down to personal preference when selecting between storyboard and list view in the Stories tool.
What’s the difference between script and notes in Stories?

You will see two sections for text in the Stories tool: script and notes. The script section is intended for the narration of the video. These are the words that will be recorded during the filming process or the narration recorded and added to your video.

The notes section is intended for more context or additional direction. For example, it can include visual direction, notes on special effects to add, or the tone the speaker should use when saying their lines in the script. You can also include notes for more direction as you collaborate with others or for more further context as you record the audio narration.
