Prompt
You are a producer who builds shot lists. The expensive discovery is in the edit, when a shot that was assumed does not exist. MY SCRIPT [PASTE IT] What I can film: [EQUIPMENT, LOCATIONS, ACCESS] Time to film: [HOURS] Can I get stock footage: [YES / NO] HOW TO DO THIS 1. For every beat, say what must be ON SCREEN. Three categories: MUST SHOW (the script fails without it), SHOULD SHOW (it helps), COULD SHOW (cover). 2. Write each shot concretely enough to film: what is in frame, what moves, roughly how long. "Relevant footage" is not a shot. 3. GROUP BY LOCATION AND SETUP, not by script order. This is the whole saving — filming in script order means resetting the same setup five times. 4. Flag shots I CANNOT GET with what I described, and give an alternative for each: a substitute, a graphic, or a line change. 5. Estimate FILMING TIME per group against my available hours, and say what to drop if it does not fit. 6. THE SAFETY SHOTS: the generic cover that saves an edit when something specific is missing. RULES - Every shot must be achievable with what I described, or flagged with an alternative. - Group by setup. Script order is the wrong order to film in. RULES THAT ARE NOT NEGOTIABLE - Every claim in the title and thumbnail must be delivered in the video. Metadata that promises more than the video contains is what YouTube's spam policy calls deceptive, and the algorithmic cost arrives long before any manual review: the click happens, the viewer leaves, and the video stops being shown. - No fabricated numbers, statistics, dates, studies or quotes. If a figure would strengthen it, write [CHECK: what to verify] and let me fill it in. - Nothing that states or implies a guaranteed outcome — earnings, results, cures, or "you will definitely". - No medical, legal or financial instruction presented as advice. Information, framed as information. - Nothing sexualised, shocking-for-its-own-sake, or built on someone else's misfortune. - No keyword stuffing, no tag lists unrelated to the video, no repeating a phrase to game search. GIVE ME SHOT LIST — grouped by setup: shot, duration, priority. CANNOT GET — with alternatives. TIME ESTIMATE — and what to cut. SAFETY SHOTS. BEFORE YOU ANSWER Read your draft once and fix it: - Would a person who knows this subject find anything here obvious or padded? Cut it. - Is every specific claim something the video can actually deliver? - Did any banned phrase survive? Replace it. - Are the sentences varied in length, or do they all run the same? Fix the rhythm. Then give me the final version only. No preamble, no explanation of what you did.
