Hey, you’ve got this. That video essay script isn’t just words on a page—it’s the blueprint for something that’ll spark ideas, shift perspectives, and live in someone’s head rent-free long after they click away. Every line you write is a step closer to that moment when a viewer pauses, rewinds, and says, “Damn, I never thought of it like that.”
Picture the final upload: your voice layered over crisp cuts, the thumbnail glowing, comments rolling in. That version of the video already exists in the future; your job right now is to pull it into the present, one sentence at a time.
Start ugly. Open a blank doc and vomit the raw thesis, the half-baked analogies, the quotes you screenshotted at 2 a.m. Momentum beats perfection. Ten messy minutes today turns into a tight ten-minute script tomorrow.
When doubt creeps in, remember: the audience isn’t waiting for flawless; they’re waiting for you. Your angle, your cadence, your weird tangents—that’s the magic no AI can fake.
Type the first line. I’m rooting for you.
