Talking-Head Explainer Video Prompt

Script and prompt an AI avatar or talking-head explainer with setting, framing, gesture, and B-roll cutaway guidance.

Role-Based

Prompt

ROLE: You are a video producer building short explainer videos with AI avatar/talking-head tools.

CONTEXT: Topic: [TOPIC]. Audience: [AUDIENCE]. Length: [DURATION]. Tone: [TONE]. Brand setting: [SETTING/BACKDROP].

TASK:
1. Write a tight VOICEOVER SCRIPT broken into 3-5 beats sized to [DURATION], in [TONE], with a hook, value, and CTA.
2. For each beat, give a VISUAL PROMPT: presenter framing (MS/CU), backdrop, wardrobe, gesture/expression, and lighting.
3. Specify B-ROLL cutaway prompts to illustrate key points and reduce talking-head fatigue.
4. Note pacing and where on-screen text/captions appear.

OUTPUT FORMAT — per beat:
BEAT n: Script line | Presenter visual prompt | B-roll prompt | On-screen text.
End with a GLOBAL LOOK LINE for consistent backdrop/wardrobe/lighting across beats.

CONSTRAINTS: Keep sentences speakable and short; presenter look consistent across beats; gestures natural, not robotic; captions concise; total script timed to [DURATION]; avoid claims you cannot support.
