Video tools keep getting better, but nobody talks about how much time gets burned in pre-production. These prompts handle the scripting, storyboarding, and shot planning so you can stop stalling and start editing.
[Claude]
Given a 90-second product demo script about [describe your product], generate a shot-by-shot storyboard with 8 scenes. For each scene, list: timestamp range, visual description (15 words max), suggested B-roll or stock category, and one line of voiceover. Output as a markdown table with columns: Scene | Time | Visual | B-Roll | Voiceover.
[ChatGPT]
Take this raw video idea: [paste your idea]. Expand it into a complete production brief with: target platform and aspect ratio, estimated runtime, 5 hook options for the first 3 seconds, a 10-scene outline with transitions, and a music mood recommendation. Deliver as a single structured document with clear headers.
[Cursor]
Given a folder of raw video clips named by scene (e.g., intro_01.mp4, broll_02.mp4), write a Python script that auto-generates an editing timeline JSON. Map each clip to a track, assign default transitions, and estimate total duration. Output the JSON to timeline.json with clip paths, start times, durations, and transition types.
