Two personas, two jobs
Writing and editing are different jobs. Use a different specialist for each:
- YouTube Growth Strategist (@Youtube): structure, retention, and pacing
- Ruthless Editor (@Editor): cuts fluff and tightens every line
Where to write
Open Creator Studio → Video Studio and choose Build from Scratch. The Script tab gives you a canvas for your script, and the Chat tab has the Visionary Director persona built in for visual and creative direction. You can bring @Youtube or @Editor into the chat too. You can also draft in Ask Ace, with your Brand Profile selected so the script sounds like you.
Draft
Give the strategist everything from Module 1:
@Youtube Write a 40-second short-form script. Idea: [one sentence]. Hook: [your chosen hook]. Structure: hook, tension, payoff, CTA. Audience: [who]. CTA: [one action]. Label each part.
Edit
Then hand it to the editor:
@Editor Cut this script by 25% without losing the payoff. Remove any line that doesn't move the story forward. Keep it conversational.
Make it yours
AI drafts are a starting point. Before moving on:
- Replace one generic example with a real one from your work.
- Say it out loud. Change anything you'd never actually say.
- Check the idea is still one idea.
Try it
Draft your script with @Youtube, cut it with @Editor, then make your three personal edits.
