Scripts for YouTube, corporate video, podcasts and commercials
A script is a working tool, and the right format depends on what you are making. An explainer video uses a two-column layout with narration on one side and visuals on the other. A podcast script is mostly spoken text with cues for music and segments. A commercial must tell its story in 15, 30, or 60 seconds. A YouTube series needs a hook, a pace that holds attention, and a repeatable structure across episodes.
Because spoken pace averages around 130 to 150 words a minute, a three-minute explainer needs about 400 to 450 words of narration. We write to your target running time and tell you if your content cannot fit. Cutting is part of the craft. We also adapt tone for the audience, whether that means friendly and plain for customers or measured and exact for internal training. Short-form work is often the hardest to write, because every second has to earn its place and there is no room for padding or for ideas that do not pay off.
Television pilots, series pitches and narrative scripts
Television writing asks different questions from film. A pilot must establish the characters, the world, and the engine that will generate episodes week after week. Half-hour comedies and hour-long dramas follow different act structures, and streaming formats vary again. Your writer works with you to define the series premise and then drafts a pilot that shows the format working, along with a short series outline for what follows.
For narrative scripts such as web series, audio dramas, or branded short films, we focus on economy. Every scene must either move the story or reveal character. Dialogue is written to sound like real speech with its interruptions and silences. If you intend to shoot on a limited budget, tell us at the start. Fewer locations and fewer characters make a script easier to produce, and we will write accordingly.
How revisions, ownership and production notes are handled
You receive a first draft, then give consolidated notes, and the writer revises approved material. We recommend a table read, even a casual one, because reading aloud exposes awkward lines faster than silent review. A second pass after that read usually improves a script more than any amount of early tinkering. Revisions on approved material are included in the agreed scope. Taking notes together after a read-through is the quickest route to a better draft, and we schedule one if you want it. Clear, consolidated notes from one person also make revision faster than scattered comments from many.
You own the final script and every right in it, and an NDA is available before you share your concept or any proprietary information. For commercial and corporate work, we can include production notes: suggested shots, timing marks, and on-screen text. If your project continues into a longer film or series, the same writer can often carry it forward with a full understanding of your tone and characters. The pace of review rests with you.
